Todays case is titled "The Shell Lake Murders, Victor Earnest Hoffman, and Mental Health in Canada."
The Shell Lake murders is the name of a mass murder incident committed by Victor Ernest Hoffman (1946 – May 21, 2004) in Shell Lake, Saskatchewan, Canada, during the early morning of August 15, 1967. Nine people, all members of the family of James Peterson, were shot in the head by a man who was later called "Canada's worst random mass murderer."
