Hello listeners. The catalyst for tonight's episode is one of those short and rather clinical notices from my province's police force that warns of a high-risk offender having

been released from prison with plans to live in our community. I'm sure you've seen similar

notices in your area and another type of thing I'm referring to.

In this recent case in Nova Scotia, the warning concerns a man named Doug Worth and the advisory offered only the barest details about his release conditions and gave no sense of the horror that put him behind bars for the past 25 years.

When we started digging into Doug Worth's history, what we found was one of the

most barbaric murders in Canadian history. I'm referring to the 1987 murder of 12-year-old Trina Campbell

and the grotesque lengths that Doug Worth went in an attempt to hide what he did there. In this episode,

Madeline Klein and I will explore who Douglas

Worth is. We'll hear how he finally got caught, and we'll talk about why his release

raises unsettling questions about public safety. So let's get into it. Douglas Worth, a federal

offender, is now living in the Dartmouth area. Worth has a criminal history dating back to 1968 for offenses including rape, theft, and breaking and entering.

But it was the 1987 murder and dismemberment of a young girl in Brampton, Ontario, that landed him a life sentence until now.

In Canada, life in prison really doesn't mean life in prison. The vast majority of

offenders will be released. Ms. Madeline Klein, I'm talking to you from Nova Scotia, where we are

under a dryness lockdown. You're not allowed to go in the woods.

There's signs everywhere that say do not go in the woods.
