Court documents reveal confusion around number of shooters in Tumbler Ridge killings
RCMP documents say the 18-year-old suspect was obsessed with guns and had mental health problems as investigators sought search warrants for devices and records.
- Newly released RCMP court documents reveal the 18-year-old shooter who killed eight people in Tumbler Ridge, B.C., on February 10 was "obsessed with guns." The records provide fresh insight into the tragedy that shook the northeastern town.
- Police initially suspected two shooters at Tumbler Ridge Secondary School after receiving reports of a driver with apparent nickname "Steezy." Documents show officers discovered the suspect's mother and brother dead at the family home before the school attack.
- Investigators secured warrants for electronic devices including phones and laptops. OpenAI voluntarily disclosed to police that they located two ChatGPT accounts believed to have been used by the shooter, according to court documents.
- Additional court filings reveal "biological evidence" and documents supporting Jesse's residency were located. The investigation found the suspect had mental health problems and was "fascinated by firearms," providing context to the tragedy.
- Legal documents released following a media consortium challenge, including The Canadian Press, remain heavily redacted with exact call times obscured. This redaction makes it difficult to determine the full timeline of events on February 10.
