Open Letter To RCMP Commissioner Bob Paulson

Open Letter To #RCMP Commissioner Bob Paulson @RCMPOnt

Sir, And I’m using sir because of your title and because I have to. Not because I want to. These past few weeks have been very difficult for me. Fabrice, Dave, and Doug were friends of mine. I struggle with my own demons of what I could of done differently that night. Thoughts that will haunt me for the rest of my life. It would be unfair for me to lay at your feet the motivations of Justin…

The Mayerthorpe Fair was on the weekend of aug 8 while we were up there visiting. We attended the Ag Fair to bouncy castles and the mechanical bull. My oldest son wanted to give it a try and can say he did quite good. The gentleman operating the bull was also really good giving him pointers along the way.

On March 3 it will be 10 years since this tragic day struck us. James Roszko took the lives of these four officer who where also sons, husbands and fathers. When I still see picture of that farm it still give me chills. These four RCMP officers will never be forgotten. I will never forget this day as Long as I live.

Man convicted for his role in Mayerthorpe shootings granted day parole

A man convicted for his role in the shooting deaths of four Alberta Mounties in Mayerthorpe nine years ago has been granted day parole. Shawn Hennessey dabbed his eyes as the parole board ruled he will only have to stay at a halfway house in the evenings. The board said the 36-year-old has taken responsibility for his actions and shown empathy for his victims. "It will bother me for the rest of my life. The hurt I have caused for so many people will never go away," Hennessey told the board Tuesday.

I think four lives were torn apart that day. Their loved ones will never get their lives back. I am grateful to be able to return back to my family.

Shawn Hennessey

Hennessey and his brother-in-law, Dennis Cheeseman, pleaded guilty to manslaughter for giving James Roszko a rifle and a ride to Roszko's farm near Mayerthorpe in 2005. Constables Peter Schiemann, Anthony Gordon, Brock Myrol and Leo Johnston had been guarding a Quonset hut on Roszko's farm as part of a marijuana grow-op and automobile chop-shop investigation. Roszko then ambushed and killed the four officers before he killed himself. Hennessey was sentenced in 2009 to 10 years and four months for his role in the crime.

I will prove I am a different person, that these things will never come from Shawn Hennessey again. I want to honour the victims and prove I have changed.
