The inquiry was called after Lionel Desmond, an Afghanistan war veteran, killed his wife, daughter, mother and himself in their home in Upper Big Tracadie, Guysborough Co. in 2017.
Allen Murray, inquiry counsel and Chief Crown Attorney for the Central Region of the Nova Scotia Public Prosecution Service, tells The Hawk the inquiry has examined the events leading up to the incident, as well as Desmond’s state of mind in the days before.
“The first session did deal with the events very close in time to the tragedy, and those individuals that dealt with him- police officers and treating health care professionals.”
