RCMP Boss Duheme Says It’s Still Too Soon to Release Details on Tumbler Ridge Guns
RCMP says firearm details remain tied to an active investigation as media groups seek access and a coroner’s inquest looms.
- RCMP Commissioner Mike Duheme confirmed last Wednesday that details regarding firearms used in the Tumbler Ridge mass shooting remain confidential, citing an ongoing investigation.
- Eighteen-Year-Old Jesse Van Rootselaar killed eight people in the Feb. 10 attack before taking her own life; PolySeSouvient and other gun control advocacy groups subsequently requested verified information about the weapons used.
- In his letter, Duheme stated that information remains "subject to an active investigation, which will conclude only once all investigative avenues have been exhausted," with no predetermined timeline for release.
- PolySeSouvient argues that police must balance operational secrecy with public accountability, contending an ongoing investigation "cannot become a blanket reason to withhold every verified fact about the firearms."
- The Coroners Service has announced an inquest into the tragedy; Duheme promised the RCMP will "participate fully in this process if and when our officers, employees or subject matter experts are called to provide evidence.
