May first was the first full

4:53

day. Glenn was set loose to

4:55

explore the world on his own

terms and it started off well.

Glenn spent today shopping and

5:54

the very same day glenn moved into

5:56

his apartment forty four year old paul

5:58

not was running a few parents of

6:00

his own in Halifax. Paul

6:02

was a recently retired veteran of the

6:04

Canadian Armed Forces, where he served as

6:06

a Navy cook. He'd done

6:09

two tours of duty in the Persian

6:11

Gulf and had been stationed as a

6:13

NATO peacekeeper along the border between Egypt

6:15

and Israel. But now

6:17

he was a dad and family man. Despite

6:20

being separated from his wife, they

6:22

remained friends. He loved

6:24

pottering around his garden, making DIY

6:27

repairs on the house and cooking

6:29

his famous chicken parmesan for the

6:31

kids. And on May

6:33

4, he spent the day taking

6:35

his 17-year-old daughter Jennifer shopping around

6:38

town. Just the year before,

6:40

Paul had helped his son Andrew move away

6:42

from home for the first time, and he

6:44

knew it wouldn't be long before Jennifer was

6:46

old enough to move out on her own

6:49

as well. After finishing up

6:51

their errands, Paul dropped his daughter off

6:53

at her job, kissed her goodbye, and

6:55

promised he'd see her when she got

6:57

home after her shift. Some

7:02

time later, when Jennifer was at work,

7:04

Paul left his home and drove out

7:07

to a place called Citadel Hill. Located

7:09

at the center of Halifax, Citadel

7:12

Hill is the site of an old

7:14

military fort dating back to the 18th

7:17

century. The star-shaped fortress is a

7:19

tourist attraction and a living history

7:21

museum, surrounded by quiet green space

7:24

and a few shady trees. But

7:27

after dark, Citadel Hill has

7:29

a very different reputation. Because

7:32

of the location's relative privacy compared

7:34

to the rest of the city,

7:36

it's a popular spot for gay men to

7:38

cruise. Or in other

7:41

words, to find other men interested

7:43

in having discrete intimate encounters. And

7:46

it wasn't uncommon for Paul to cruise

7:48

Citadel Hill after dark. The

7:51

system was simple, park your car in

7:53

the right area, and eventually someone would

7:55

come up to your window and strike

7:57

up a conversation. was

8:00

right. You'd invite the person into your

8:02

car and things would progress from there.

8:05

Paul's sexual preferences weren't exactly a

8:07

secret, but he wasn't very public

8:09

about it either. When

8:11

he felt the urge, he'd head to Citadel

8:14

Hill and meet other men who were looking

8:16

for a little anonymous trade. Which

8:19

is exactly what Paul was expecting

8:21

when he parked his Blue Chevrolet

8:23

Malibu that evening. But

8:25

when Jennifer's shift ended at 9pm,

8:28

she returned home to an empty house. Her

8:31

father was nowhere to be seen.

8:36

Unbeknownst to anyone at that time,

8:38

Paul had met another man while he

8:41

was out cruising Citadel Hill. And

8:43

that man was Glenn Race, out

8:45

and about on his very first

8:48

evening living on his own. But

8:50

while everyone else in Glenn's life was

8:52

hoping he could make it through a

8:54

normal day, secretly Glenn was

8:56

determined to carry out another plan

8:59

of his own. A

9:01

plan darker than anyone could have

9:03

imagined. The exact details

9:05

of what happened next can never

9:07

be known for sure, but at

9:10

some point in the night, Glenn

9:12

approached Paul's Malibu and entered his

9:14

vehicle. Paul, while seated

9:16

in his own driver's seat,

9:18

was then viciously attacked and

9:20

stabbed repeatedly by Glenn. Paul

9:23

struggled violently with Glenn inside

9:25

the car for as long

9:27

as he could, but eventually

9:29

Glenn overpowered him, stabbed

9:31

him in his chest, neck

9:33

and thigh before finally slashing

9:36

his throat. Glenn then

9:38

put Paul's body into the back seat,

9:40

started the Malibu's engine, and drove

9:43

approximately 40 miles to a remote

9:45

forested area near the town of

9:47

Milcove. There, Glenn removed

9:49

Paul's body from the car and disposed

9:52

it along a little-used path in the

9:54

woods. Then Glenn

9:56

drove Paul's car back to Halifax.

10:00

The plan was far from over. Nothing

10:06

in Glenn's early life had even

10:08

remotely suggested he was heading down

10:10

a dark path. He

10:12

spent his childhood in Mount Yaniac,

10:14

a small community in Nova Scotia,

10:17

in a family home with a

10:19

classic treehouse and tire swing set

10:21

up. And for a

10:23

while, the races seemed to be living

10:25

the nuclear family dream. Glenn's

10:28

father Mark was a supervisor at a

10:30

power plant. His mother Donna worked as

10:32

a cashier. Glenn was

10:34

close with his younger brother Doug and

10:36

the siblings worked paper as for pocket

10:38

money. Before Glenn turned

10:41

10, the family moved to Dartmouth,

10:43

a city across the harbor from

10:45

Halifax where Glenn spent his teenage

10:47

years. In high school,

10:49

he was both athletic and academic,

10:51

excelling on the football field as

10:54

well as mathematics. In

10:57

1999, Glenn put his academics to

10:59

good use and enrolled at Dalhousie

11:01

University in Halifax to

11:03

study mechanical engineering. His

11:06

first year went off without a

11:08

hitch, but things began to deteriorate

11:10

during his second year when he

11:13

became depressed, started skipping school, and

11:15

only managed to complete a few

11:17

classes. It was around

11:19

that time Glenn began feeling a

11:22

growing sense of general paranoia, something

11:24

he chalked up to marijuana use. In

11:27

fact, it was a warning

11:29

sign of incipient mental illness.

11:32

By year three, Glenn was done

11:34

with school and completely dropped out

11:37

just a few weeks into the

11:39

semester, returning home to live with

11:41

his parents. From

11:43

there, things only went downhill. Your

11:54

hair is never just your hair,

11:56

it's built into your identity, your

11:59

confidence, your brain space. It's been

12:01

with you through thick and thin. And

12:03

the reason it may be thinning, it's not

12:06

just your hair either. It could be

12:08

something with your job, or your stomach,

12:10

or your antiperspirant, or your hormones. It

12:12

could be almost anything that has almost

12:15

nothing to do with it. And I

12:17

got a pretty good idea why my

12:19

hair started thinning. Working two full-time jobs

12:21

for six and a half years, long

12:23

commutes and late nights, eating

12:25

lousy because I was too busy, and

12:28

even skipping meals because I was just

12:30

working too much. And I'm

12:32

sure parenting five kids probably had

12:34

something to do with it. I've tried other

12:36

products and just didn't get the results I

12:38

was looking for, until I found Nutrafol. Nutrafol

13:55

stopped eating almost entirely,

13:57

isolating himself in the basement. cutting

14:00

himself off from the outside world. No

14:03

phone, no TV, no radio,

14:05

not even lights. At

14:08

first, Glenn's parents didn't know what to make

14:10

of it. Glenn told

14:12

them it was his way

14:14

of cleansing himself. After

14:17

just two months of living at home,

14:19

Glenn had lost nearly 40 pounds and

14:22

it was only getting worse, both

14:24

physically and mentally. His

14:27

parents knew this was more than just

14:29

a weird face and took him to

14:31

a doctor. Glenn was

14:33

urgently referred for psychiatric assessment.

14:37

Upon examination, Glenn's thoughts were

14:39

determined to be disordered and

14:41

diluted, earning him a diagnosis

14:44

of major depression with psychiatric

14:46

features and prescription meds to

14:48

match. Everyone could

14:50

see Glenn was ill. Everyone,

14:53

that is, but Glenn. He

14:55

staunchly refused to take any

14:57

of his medications and continued

15:00

to deteriorate in front of

15:02

everyone's eyes. Worried about

15:04

his safety, Glenn's parents made the

15:06

heart-wrenching decision to call

15:09

police. And in November 2001, at

15:12

the age of 20, Glenn Race

15:15

was involuntarily committed for the

15:17

first time. At

15:19

Nova Scotia Hospital, doctors observed

15:21

Glenn and discovered a key

15:23

symptom to his condition. He

15:26

exhibited poverty of speech as

15:28

well as flat effect, meaning

15:30

he expressed little to no

15:32

emotion in his words and

15:35

facial expressions. It

15:37

was the first major step en

15:39

route to an eventual diagnosis of

15:41

schizophrenia. Glenn's parents had

15:44

a hard time accepting the diagnosis,

15:46

as would any parent, but

15:48

Glenn didn't believe a word of it.

15:51

According to the doctors, Glenn continued

15:53

to have no insight into his

15:56

illness or the need for treatment.

15:59

In short, Glenn was a Glen was so ill,

16:01

he didn't even know he was ill.

16:06

Since Glen had no insight into his

16:09

condition, he saw no reason to stay

16:11

in the hospital, and so,

16:13

three days after he was admitted, he

16:15

bailed and went back home. The

16:18

first time, his parents were able

16:20

to convince him to go back,

16:22

but the very next day, he

16:24

left again. And this time, no one

16:26

knew where he'd gone. After

16:28

a harrowing week for his family,

16:31

police finally located Glen, sleeping in

16:33

a dumpster. He

16:35

was filthy, hostile towards hospital

16:37

staff, and muttering to himself

16:40

or the walls. Doctors

16:42

saw little choice but to

16:44

administer drugs intravenously, against as

16:47

well. But the drugs

16:49

had a positive effect, and two months

16:51

after he returned to the hospital, he

16:53

was stable enough during the privilege

16:55

of walking the grounds. However,

16:58

Glen immediately escaped and ran

17:00

away back home. Without

17:02

the doctor's oversight, and without

17:05

taking his medication, Glen predictably

17:07

got worse. He

17:09

continued to isolate himself and ignored

17:11

his physical hygiene. To the point,

17:13

he went over a year without

17:16

brushing his teeth or taking a

17:18

shower. During this time,

17:20

Glen developed an obsession with

17:22

spiritual matters and began believing

17:24

he was suffering psychotic attacks

17:26

from the astral plane and

17:29

felt telepathic signals drifting into

17:31

his mind. The intense

17:33

feelings Glen was experiencing caused him

17:35

to develop a real-life belief in

17:38

vampires and demons. As

17:40

a precaution, he began chewing

17:42

garlic. He also believed

17:45

that holding his breath for extended

17:47

periods of time would prevent further

17:49

attacks, and from

17:51

there his pseudo-religious obsession

17:53

continued to grow deeper.

17:56

It's difficult to imagine the pain

17:59

and suffering Glen's parents experienced

18:01

watching their son struggling with

18:03

his illness. At

18:05

times, he was even prone to

18:07

violent outbursts, lashing out at

18:10

his family, smashing the walls, the

18:12

stereo and his dad's computer. At

18:15

night, he slept with a knife. The

18:18

years that followed were tense and

18:21

unpredictable. Eventually, the family

18:23

moved out of the city of

18:25

Windsor, Nova Scotia, hoping the yellow

18:27

bungalow beside an apple orchard would

18:29

have a calming influence on their

18:31

ailing son. But

18:37

just four months later, he set

18:39

himself on fire. Glen

18:41

insisted it had been an accident,

18:44

but his parents suspected otherwise. For

18:47

the next two years, Glen

18:49

wrote a seesaw of psychotic

18:51

episodes, commitments, hospital escapes, recoveries

18:54

and remissions. Adjustments

18:57

to his medication produced small

18:59

but encouraging signs. Enough

19:02

that by the spring of 2007, he

19:05

was out of the hospital and looking to live

19:07

on his own. But

19:09

no matter how much anyone tried,

19:11

it remained wholly impossible for Glen

19:13

to comprehend his own mental illness.

19:17

After his final release from a

19:19

psychiatric hospital, Glen again went off

19:21

his meds. No one

19:23

knows for sure when the idea came to

19:25

him or for how long he'd held it.

19:28

But in the lead up to May

19:30

1st, 2007, when Glen moved out on

19:32

his own, he'd become

19:35

preoccupied with the idea that

19:37

the world was polluted and

19:39

overpopulated. Years later,

19:41

Glen would claim that he believed

19:44

humanity needed to be called in

19:46

order to prevent a future apocalypse.

19:49

And if no one else was willing to

19:51

do what was necessary, he decided he'd be

19:53

the one to do it. And

19:56

at the very first opportunity to put

19:58

his delusions into action, He

20:00

did, murdering Paul Knott

20:02

at Citadel Hill. The

20:09

morning after the murder, May 2nd,

20:13

2007, Paul's daughter Jennifer woke

20:15

up afraid. Not

20:17

only had her father not come home that

20:19

night, he wasn't there in the morning either.

20:22

It wasn't entirely uncommon for Paul to

20:24

already be out of the house by the

20:26

time Jennifer woke up, but he always

20:28

called to make sure she was up and

20:31

ready for school. That

20:33

morning, there was no call

20:35

and the silence was deafening.

20:38

Throughout the day, Jennifer attempted

20:40

contacting her father, calling and

20:42

sending him messages, but

20:45

after an entire day with no

20:47

response, Jennifer decided to call police

20:49

and report her father missing. The

20:56

entire time Jennifer was attempting to

20:59

get in touch with her father,

21:01

Glenn was driving Paul's Malibu all

21:03

over town, driving it to several

21:05

stores and gas stations, attempting

21:07

to use their ATMs. Finally,

21:10

he decided to ditch the car

21:12

before police started looking for it.

21:15

So he drove out to a lonely,

21:18

weed choked road behind the airport and

21:20

found a rutted dirt track branching off

21:22

until the car got bogged down in

21:25

the mud. On the

21:27

car's hood, Glenn scratched a message into

21:29

the paint, waiting for Fred's tow truck

21:31

thanks. Then Glenn locked

21:33

the doors, popped the trunk and

21:36

pulled his own 18-speed bicycle out

21:38

before pedaling away from the abandoned

21:40

car. It was an

21:42

extremely complex job for someone who

21:44

had trouble with disordered thinking, things

21:48

that indicate a high level of

21:50

planning and forethought. For

21:52

someone whose motivations may have been

21:54

the result of genuine psychosis, he

21:56

was quite thorough in his efforts

21:58

to cover his tracks. On

22:03

the morning of May 3rd, Glenn's father

22:06

received a phone call. He must have

22:08

been half expecting ever since Glenn moved

22:10

out. It had been barely 48

22:13

hours since he moved, but now

22:15

Glenn was calling from a gas

22:17

station asking for help. He

22:19

needed to ride home. His

22:21

bicycle was broken. Mark

22:23

Ray drove out and picked up his son

22:26

and took him back to his parents' home.

22:29

At the house, Glenn sat out on

22:31

the patio arguing with someone that no

22:33

one else could see. Everyone

22:35

thought it was best if Glenn stayed at

22:38

his parents' home for a few more nights.

22:43

Two days later, Paul Knott's body

22:45

was discovered by an ATV rider

22:47

exploring the dirt roads around Milk

22:50

Cove. Police arrived

22:52

and launched an investigation.

22:54

Paul's sweater was pulled over his

22:56

face. His belt was open, and he

22:58

was missing a shoe. The next

23:01

day, two more ATVers were riding

23:03

the back roads near the airport

23:05

when an abandoned car blocked their

23:08

path. It had no plates

23:10

or identifying marks, and there was a

23:12

tarp covering the back seat. Strangest

23:15

of all, someone had scratched

23:17

a note right into the paint on the

23:19

hood. Who would deface a

23:21

car like that when they could have just

23:23

left a note on the dash? They

23:26

got their answer the following day when

23:28

they heard a radio report about Paul's

23:30

murder. When they heard

23:32

that police were on the lookout

23:34

for Paul's car, a blue Chevy

23:36

Malibu, they immediately reported to police

23:38

what they found. But

23:40

it wasn't soon enough to save

23:43

Glenn's next victim. The

23:48

very same day police found Paul's

23:50

car, May 7th, 45-year-old Trevor Brewster

23:53

was just getting back to work

23:55

after a week-long vacation to the

23:57

Dominican Republic. Trevor had spent the last

23:59

day in the last 24 years as an employee

24:01

at the Steak and Steen restaurant in

24:04

Halifax. And that particular day was an

24:06

exciting one. Because it was finally the

24:08

day Trevor was going to be trained

24:11

as a manager. Things were

24:13

looking up for Trevor. He loved

24:15

to travel and excitedly chatted about his

24:17

recent trip with his co workers. One

24:20

of his friends and co workers had recently

24:23

got a new dog and Trevor who was

24:25

an animal lover made plans to come over

24:27

and meet the new pooch after a shift

24:29

ended. But he never made it to

24:31

the meet up. Trevor shift

24:33

ended around 11 o'clock that night.

24:36

But before he went to hang out with

24:38

his friend, he decided to make a stop

24:40

at a place called Frenchman Lake for a

24:42

bit of fun. Like Citadel

24:45

Hill. This was also a known cruising

24:47

spot for men and the

24:49

place Trevor liked to visit on

24:51

occasion. There was no way he

24:53

could have known this was the

24:55

exact spot Glenn race had chosen

24:57

to continue his delusional crusade. He

24:59

started six days earlier. Somewhere

25:02

along the pathways at the lake, Glenn

25:04

struck Trevor in the head with a

25:07

metal bar and slashed his

25:10

throat. After committing his second

25:12

murder in less than a week,

25:14

he dragged Trevor's body and headed

25:16

beneath a wharf on the lake. He

25:19

then stole Trevor's keys and drove away

25:21

in his black on the civic. If

25:31

you're like us and you have pets, then

25:33

I'm sure you've been known to splurge on

25:35

them every once in a while buying them

25:37

ridiculous outfits for Thanksgiving and Christmas a day

25:40

at the spa. Maybe you even have a

25:42

treat launcher that you can operate from an

25:44

app on your phone when you're away. Now

25:46

when it comes to our pets, those are

25:49

the fun expenses. But let's

25:51

talk about the not so fun

25:53

expenses. The scary ones. Like

25:55

when your pet is involved in an

25:57

accident or develops an unexpected illness. Not

26:00

only can these times be overwhelmingly

26:02

emotional, but there's also the added

26:04

stress of trying to figure out

26:06

how to manage the hefty vet

26:08

bill you weren't planning on. In

26:11

times of pet emergencies, you should

26:13

only have one thing to worry

26:15

about, getting your pet the best

26:17

possible care. The ASPCA

26:19

Pet Health Insurance Program offers customizable

26:22

accident and illness plans, making it

26:24

easier for pet parents like you

26:26

to help your pet get the

26:28

care they may need. The

26:30

ASPCA Pet Health Insurance Program has

26:33

been around for 18 years

26:35

and has helped more than 600,000 pets during

26:37

that time. They

26:40

allow you to customize your plan, helping

26:42

ensure that your pet's plan is

26:44

as unique as they are, because

26:46

vet bills can really add up,

26:49

especially when you're least expecting it.

26:52

For example, use their app to submit

26:54

a claim, and you'll receive reimbursement for

26:56

eligible vet bills directly into your bank

26:59

account. To

27:40

1.30 in the morning, a black Honda

27:42

Civic with a rainbow striped teddy bear

27:44

above the tail light tore through an

27:46

intersection in full view of a police

27:49

cruiser. The cop flipped

27:51

the sirens and tried to pull it

27:53

over for erratic driving. Instead,

27:55

Glenn hit the gas, rather

27:58

than endanger anyone with a high-speed chase,

28:00

the officer ran the plates and

28:03

decided to intercept the perpetrator at

28:05

their home address. But

28:07

of course, the plates belonged to

28:09

Trevor Brewster. So when

28:11

police arrived at his home, they found

28:13

neither him nor the car that had

28:15

sped through the intersection. From

28:18

Glenn's perspective, sitting behind

28:20

the wheel of a car he'd just

28:22

stolen and from a man he'd just

28:25

murdered, when he saw that the police

28:27

had stopped pursuing him, he couldn't believe

28:29

his good fortune. He took

28:32

it as a sign God approved of what he was

28:34

doing. How else could

28:36

anyone explain such a miracle? That

28:39

night, Glenn drove Trevor's car to

28:41

the neighboring province of New Brunswick

28:43

and eventually all the way to

28:46

Havilloc, Quebec, where he decided to

28:48

ditch the stolen vehicle along a

28:50

remote logging road on private property.

28:53

It wouldn't be discovered for another

28:55

four months. But the place

28:57

Glenn ditched the car was no

29:00

accident. It was only

29:02

about a mile north of the

29:04

US-Canada border. Next, he pulled out

29:06

a compass and map before disappearing into

29:09

the woods on foot, emerging

29:11

a short while later on US

29:13

soil south of the border near

29:15

the town of Moores, New York. Two

29:20

days after Glenn had murdered Trevor

29:22

Brewster, his coworkers became alarmed when

29:24

he didn't show up for work.

29:27

Not exactly the kind of behavior

29:29

they expected from a lifelong employee

29:31

who'd recently been promoted, but

29:34

just hours after police had received

29:36

the missing person's report, Trevor's body

29:38

had been discovered by a man

29:41

collecting bottles along the shores of

29:43

Frenchman Lake. Two

29:45

vicious murders and less than a

29:47

week. A sense of

29:49

alarm rose through the ranks of

29:51

Halifax police when they learned that

29:53

both Paul Knott and Trevor Brewster

29:56

had both been murdered in a

29:58

similar manner under similar circumstances. Police

30:01

then issued a public advisory to

30:03

the gate community in Halifax, warning

30:06

them about potential safety concerns

30:08

in cruising areas, but

30:11

they stopped short of speculating a

30:13

serial killer might be on the

30:15

loose. While

30:19

the community in Halifax was receiving the

30:21

disturbing news about a killer in their

30:24

house, Glen was already over the border,

30:26

walking through the woods of northern New

30:29

York State. Eventually, Glen

30:31

stumbled across a hunting lodge where

30:33

he let himself in through an

30:35

unlocked window. Not long

30:37

after he'd gone in, an F-250

30:39

pickup pulled up outside. The

30:42

truck was driven by 35-year-old Darcy

30:44

Manor, a local handyman, school bus

30:46

driver, and father of two. Darcy

30:49

was the lodge's caretaker and had come up

30:52

for the day to help prepare the lodge

30:54

for the upcoming summer season. First

30:57

on his to-do list was getting the exterior

30:59

water pump running. As he

31:01

got to work, he didn't notice the

31:03

eyes staring at him through the kitchen

31:05

window. Inside the

31:07

lodge, Glen spotted a hunting rifle. In

31:11

his deluded mind, Glen decided

31:13

that the gun and Darcy's

31:15

arrival was no mere coincidence.

31:18

Instead, he took it as a

31:20

sign from above that his mission

31:22

wasn't over. Glen watched

31:24

through the kitchen window as Darcy worked

31:26

on the water pump. Then

31:29

he raced the rifle and fired, fatally

31:32

shooting Darcy in the back. Using

31:35

an ATV on the property, Glen drank

31:37

Darcy's body back into the woods before

31:39

stealing the F-250 and driving off. It

31:44

wasn't until after midnight when

31:46

Darcy's friends, concerned he'd never

31:48

come home, took the lock

31:51

in the front gate and searched the property.

31:53

They found Darcy's body down on

31:56

the lodge's side trails and reported

31:58

it to state troopers. Glen

32:02

was turning out to be a talented

32:05

fugitive. Twenty-four hours after the

32:07

murder, he crossed six state lines and

32:09

made it 1,000 miles south. In

32:13

Georgia, he stopped and stole South

32:15

Dakota plates from a parked vehicle

32:17

and swapped them for Darcy's. He

32:20

pulled the same trick again in Louisiana

32:22

and again in Texas. On

32:25

May 15th, two weeks after he killed

32:27

Paul, Glen made it to Los Indios,

32:30

Texas on the banks of the Rio

32:32

Grande. He'd already traveled 3,000

32:35

miles and illegally crossed one

32:37

international border. Now, all

32:40

he had to do was cross one

32:42

more. From Los

32:44

Indios, Glen set out on foot

32:46

toward the U.S.-Mexico border, carrying a

32:48

40-pound duffel bag, keeping well clear

32:50

of any official port of entry.

32:53

All that lay between him and Mexico

32:55

was the Rio Grande. In

32:58

his duffel bag, Glen carried a pack

33:00

of balloons he intended on using to

33:02

help float him and his belongings across

33:04

the river into Mexico, once

33:06

again proving that underneath all

33:09

the delusions was a calculated

33:11

and meticulous fugitive who'd successfully

33:13

covered his tracks halfway across

33:16

North America. What

33:18

Glen didn't realize as he walked

33:20

toward the Rio Grande was that

33:22

he'd tripped a motion sensor monitored

33:25

by the U.S. border security. He

33:27

was only a quarter mile north of

33:30

the river when border agent Ramon Vargas

33:32

Jr. pulled up and asked

33:34

him what he was doing. Glen

33:36

said he was just out walking

33:38

in the same mouth-mannered voice he'd

33:40

always used. Ramona for

33:43

ID and Glen handed over

33:45

his Canadian driver's license. Ramon

33:48

inspected it, then asked to see a

33:50

passport as well. Glen

33:52

dropped his duffel bag and opened it

33:54

as if to comply, but there was

33:56

no passport in the bag. Ramon

33:59

caught a close eye. glimpse of a

34:01

rifle stock just as Glenn was reaching

34:03

inside. Ramon barked

34:05

in order for Glenn to put his

34:07

hands on the vehicle, but Glenn lunged

34:09

at Ramon's pistol instead. Although

34:12

he managed to get a grip on it,

34:14

Ramon held on and fought him with his

34:16

free hand. Glenn then

34:19

gnashed his teeth, biting Ramon on the

34:21

thumb and face as the two men

34:23

fought for control. Finally,

34:25

Ramon wrestled the weapon away and

34:27

ordered Glenn to get face down

34:29

on the ground. When

34:33

Bagup arrived and inspected Glenn's bag,

34:36

they found evidence that laid out

34:38

almost the entire case. The

34:41

rifle that had killed Darcy

34:43

Manor, Trevor Brewster's driver's license,

34:45

and both men's credit cards,

34:47

along with bullets, knives, camouflage

34:49

and a bella clava. The

34:52

suspect's motive, however, was anything

34:54

but clear. Tearing

34:57

his arrest, Glenn got rigid and

34:59

refused to open his eyes, ignoring

35:01

everything that was said to him.

35:04

He would only repeat the words, walking

35:07

in circles. Once

35:09

in jail, guards looked into Glenn's cell

35:11

to see him wildly fending off attacks,

35:13

but there was no one else in

35:15

the cell with him. But

35:18

Glenn's arrest was far from the end

35:20

of the story. A

35:22

complicated and bizarre international legal

35:25

saga was about to take

35:27

place. Wanted for

35:29

crimes in two different countries, it

35:32

was the Americans who would first put

35:34

Glenn on trial. A

35:39

year later, in September 2008, Glenn

35:42

Race and his family were seated in

35:44

a courthouse in Plattsburgh, New York, less

35:46

than an hour from where Darcy Manor

35:48

had been murdered. This

35:50

court-appointed lawyer opted for a bench

35:53

trial, meaning there'd be no jury.

35:56

Glenn entered a plea of not guilty

35:58

by reason of insanity. And

36:00

a psychiatrist for the defense

36:02

corroborated his claims, stating

36:04

that Glenn had genuinely believed at

36:07

the time of the murder he

36:09

was a demon slayer cleansing the

36:11

world. While awaiting

36:13

trial, Glenn attempted suicide by

36:15

chewing open a vein on

36:18

his wrist, assuming his

36:20

spirit would float to freedom

36:22

and rematerialize outside.

36:25

Once the trial began, the prosecution

36:28

threw the courtroom a curveball when

36:30

they entered some new evidence to

36:32

cast doubt on Glenn's claims of

36:35

insanity. 27

36:37

CDs worth of recorded jailhouse phone

36:39

calls between Glenn and his family.

36:42

The prosecution's expert psychiatric witness

36:44

had listened to these calls

36:46

and decided that Glenn was

36:48

faking his mental illness. It

36:51

was shocking evidence to introduce so

36:53

late in the game, but

36:56

for some reason Glenn's court-appointed

36:58

attorney dragged his feet reviewing

37:00

the calls. He

37:02

didn't even provide them to his

37:05

own expert witnesses until it was

37:07

far too late. Because

37:09

of this, Glenn attempted to fire

37:12

his lawyer and represent himself, but

37:15

the judge denied his request. His

37:17

lawyer then attempted to file for continuance

37:20

to give himself and his experts more

37:22

time to review the materials, but

37:25

the judge also denied that request,

37:27

feeling he'd already been provided adequate

37:30

time. Scrambling to

37:32

adapt, Glenn's lawyer made a

37:34

surprising move and abandoned the

37:37

insanity defense entirely. Instead

37:39

he argued that circumstantial evidence

37:41

was not enough to prove

37:44

Glenn had even tilled Darcy

37:46

Manor. It was a

37:48

strategy that never had a chance of

37:50

succeeding. The circumstantial

37:52

evidence against Glenn was completely

37:54

overwhelming and the judge found

37:56

Glenn guilty and handed down

37:58

a life sentence. with

38:00

no chance of parole. In

38:03

the end, Glenn's long history of

38:05

documented mental illness wasn't even a

38:07

factor in his first murder trial.

39:14

being found guilty for the murder of

39:16

Darcy Manor, Glenn was extradited to Canada

39:18

to stand trial for the murders of

39:20

Paul Knott and Trevor Brewster. But

39:23

what played out in the Canadian courts was

39:25

a complete 180 from what

39:27

happened in New York. Between

39:29

the prosecution and the defense,

39:31

four different psychiatrists were called

39:33

in to independently examine Glenn,

39:35

and all four of them

39:38

reached the exact same conclusion.

39:40

Glenn Race wasn't able to

39:42

understand his actions as morally

39:45

wrong. Well, I believe that

39:47

both the Crown and the defense are fully

39:49

aware of what the expert opinions are

39:52

in this particular case. But

39:54

ultimately, it is for Justice Cody

39:56

to make the final determination on

39:58

whether that evidence satisfies. the

40:01

conclusion that Mr. Race should be declared

40:03

not criminally responsible. There won't be disagreement,

40:05

I don't anticipate, on a significant issue

40:08

between the Crown and Defense on the

40:10

opinion evidence that will be called. In

40:13

2014, the Supreme Court of

40:15

Nova Scotia found Glenn Race

40:17

not criminally responsible for the

40:19

murders of Paul Knott and

40:21

Trevor Brewster. If Glenn

40:24

can find his crimes to Canada, he

40:26

would have ended up at a psychiatric facility

40:28

for treatment. However, because

40:30

he'd already been sentenced in the

40:32

US, he was sent back

40:34

across the border as soon as the Canadian

40:37

verdict was in. Glenn

40:42

began serving his sentence at Attica

40:44

Correctional Facility in New York, a

40:46

maximum security prison and an

40:49

infamous one, housing notorious

40:51

criminals such as son of Sam

40:53

serial killer David Berkowitz. In

40:56

the 1970s, it was the site

40:58

of the deadliest prison riot in

41:01

American history. Glenn

41:03

passed his time there, dreaming of

41:05

debt-rich quick inventions like a robotic

41:07

arm, which he hoped

41:09

would finance a home in Nova Scotia

41:12

after his release. His

41:14

family didn't have the heart to tell

41:16

him he'd never see that day. Glenn

41:19

still viewed himself as a spiritual being and

41:22

disagreed with the diagnosis of

41:24

schizophrenia. After Glenn's

41:26

trial in Canada, a Nova Scotia

41:29

judge addressed the difficult subject of

41:32

Glenn's mental illness and stated, It's

41:35

important to realize that Mr. Race,

41:37

his family and friends, are victims

41:39

as well. They are

41:42

victims of the cruel and unforgiving

41:44

illness of schizophrenia. Glenn's

41:46

younger brother agreed and stated,

41:48

My brother did not kill

41:50

these individuals. He was

41:53

the symptoms of his hallucinations and

41:55

his delusions which did that. Glenn's

41:57

family felt he hadn't received any evidence of his crimes.

42:00

received a fair trial arguing

42:02

his legal counsel in the

42:04

US was unprepared and ineffective.

42:06

In fact, two years after

42:09

Glenn's trial, his court-appointed lawyer

42:11

was suspended from practicing law

42:13

and switched professions to become

42:15

a golf course manager. However,

42:18

hopes of a successful appeal faded

42:21

as time wore on, and

42:23

through it all, hearing Glenn described

42:25

as a victim was a hard pill

42:27

to swallow for the friends and family

42:30

of the people he'd murdered.

42:32

Paul Nutt's daughter, Jennifer, has

42:34

taken a less sympathetic view

42:36

and stated, I find

42:38

it troubling that Glenn races in a

42:40

facility where his family has access to

42:43

him, contact with

42:45

him, and visits regularly. In

42:47

what kind of world is that fair, as

42:49

I no longer have the luxury of speaking

42:52

to or seeing my father?

42:55

After Paul's death, Jennifer created a

42:57

Facebook page where she wrote letters

42:59

to her father, sharing news

43:02

from her everyday life. Maybe

43:07

the only thing we can be really

43:09

sure of is that Glenn Race's case

43:11

was one of the strangest and most

43:13

divisive we've ever heard. Keeping

43:16

a clinical perspective in mind while

43:18

respecting the suffering of the victims,

43:21

all while following Glenn's

43:23

white-knuckle journey, was incredibly

43:25

difficult. That's why we

43:27

reached out for an expert perspective. Dr.

43:30

Amite is a registered

43:32

psychologist who specializes in

43:34

abnormal psychology and human

43:36

sexuality. He's taught

43:38

at five different universities over the

43:41

past 20 years in various areas

43:43

of psychology. And although

43:45

he's never met or treated Glenn Race, after

43:48

reviewing this case, Dr. Amite

43:50

was struck by the contrasts

43:52

in Glenn's profile. In

43:55

his professional opinion, however, the evidence

43:57

points to a mental health tragedy.

44:00

rather than criminal intent. I

44:02

can understand why many people believe that Glenn

44:05

Race deserves to be held accountable for at

44:07

least one, if not all three of the

44:09

horrific murders he committed. I

44:11

can also understand why people would ask, how

44:13

can he claim to be not criminally responsible?

44:16

I get all that. But the fact is,

44:18

when it comes to the human condition, when

44:20

it comes to the human mind, we know

44:22

a lot. But there's so much that we

44:24

don't know, especially when it comes to phenomena

44:26

like psychosis. So it is

44:28

possible at the time that Mr. Race

44:30

murdered those three individuals, he may have

44:33

looked relatively normal. But

44:35

what was going on in his mind

44:37

was completely abnormal. And

44:39

I have seen no evidence to suggest

44:41

that he's lying about his condition. And

44:43

more importantly, multiple witnesses over the years

44:45

have stated that he has demonstrated behaviors

44:48

or beliefs that would strongly

44:50

indicate psychotic episodes and apparently

44:52

schizophrenia. So again, I can

44:54

understand why some people have

44:57

a really hard time reconciling

44:59

these attempts to evade justice

45:01

with a claim that I didn't know

45:03

what I was doing. And

45:06

that is why it is so important

45:08

to do a thorough, comprehensive assessment of

45:10

the situation and of the individual to

45:12

determine whether the person's claim that they

45:14

were not in control of their mind

45:17

at the time of the crime is

45:19

credible, especially when afterward they act

45:21

in the way that Mr. Race

45:24

did. To Dr.

45:26

Amaté, the ambiguity emphasized the

45:29

need for rigorous psychological assessment.

45:32

Maybe the only thing that could ever

45:34

bridge the gap between cleansed illusions and

45:37

his high functioning behavior. So

45:40

a mental health expert investigating a case such

45:42

as this would be looking at the person's

45:44

history. They would do

45:46

a full psychological and personality and

45:48

psychiatric investigation, might test their intelligence,

45:51

their cognitive functioning. They should be

45:53

as thorough as possible. They should

45:55

interview the client as many times

45:58

as possible. to

46:00

interview collateral sources as well to

46:02

see whether there is a history

46:04

of bizarre or psychotic type behaviours and

46:06

beliefs as was the case with Mr.

46:09

Race. In short, the

46:11

job is to determine whether in the

46:13

absence of witnesses the person could plausibly

46:15

have been in a state of psychosis

46:17

when they committed the crime. From

46:20

what I've read about Mr. Race's case, it

46:22

does seem very plausible that although he was

46:24

afraid of getting caught and although he was

46:26

afraid of being punished for what he did,

46:29

it was not in the way that we

46:31

would typically expect when we're trying to hold

46:33

somebody responsible for their actions. For

46:35

example, he may have believed that if he

46:38

was caught, he would be punished not by

46:40

the criminal system or the justice system but

46:42

rather by demons. It cannot

46:44

be emphasized enough that when someone is

46:46

in the midst of a psychotic episode,

46:48

they are divorced from reality. So

46:51

even if their actions seem rational,

46:53

even if their actions seem self-serving,

46:55

they may not be grounded in

46:58

a reality that we would agree

47:00

warrants they're being held criminally responsible

47:02

for some terrible actions. A

47:05

person's background might help decide how

47:08

credible their defense is but it

47:10

still doesn't explain how they can

47:12

be so capable in the outside

47:14

world while living inside a delusion

47:16

that's all their own. To

47:19

help interpret that, Dr.

47:21

Amate referred to the

47:23

concept of compartmentalization. That's

47:49

it. It's that easy. It's time

47:51

48:31

purposefully, intentionally or consciously, it's

48:34

like a superpower. It

48:36

enables you, for example, to be able to enter

48:39

a situation and instead of

48:41

being psychologically, cognitive, emotionally

48:44

or physiologically overwhelmed, you're able

48:46

to go in and keep

48:49

all these other factors at bay. You're

48:51

able to be present, you're able to

48:53

be focused, you're able to deal with

48:55

the issue, but you're keeping these distracting

48:57

factors that I mentioned away from your

48:59

conscious awareness so that you're able to

49:01

attend to the task at hand. And

49:04

this compartmentalization can also come after the

49:06

fact. So a first responder may

49:08

have dealt with a terrible bloody

49:10

scene and when they leave

49:12

the scene, they're able to put it behind

49:15

them. That's all conscious. When

49:18

it is unconscious, it is a huge hindrance.

49:21

One example is what's called intellectualization where

49:23

there is a complete disconnect and it's

49:25

unconscious as outside of the person's control.

49:28

There's a disconnect between their thoughts and their

49:30

feelings. So if something traumatic

49:32

happened to somebody and it happened

49:35

recently and they're recounting it to someone else, they

49:37

may be speaking as if they're reading ingredients from

49:39

a cereal box. There's no emotionality

49:41

to it. Then there's

49:43

another type of compartmentalization, once again,

49:45

unconscious where the person might say

49:47

one sentence, one idea, one thought,

49:50

and then the next sentence completely

49:52

contradicts the first one. So each

49:54

of these different thoughts are

49:56

compartmentalized from each other and you can imagine

49:58

how that would be very debilitating to

50:00

the person if it's outside of their control.

50:03

Compartmentalization is a phenomenon we've

50:06

all probably experienced in our

50:08

everyday lives. Push

50:10

it to the extreme though and we

50:13

can get a little closer to understanding

50:15

Glenn's mindset. So

50:19

if we take this to the next

50:21

step, imagine somebody does something that if

50:23

you were objective, if you were not

50:25

part of the situation, if you were

50:28

watching it, you would say that's terrible

50:30

or that's self-destructive or that's dangerous and

50:33

it's so obvious. Yet the person

50:35

in the midst of doing it

50:37

is somehow compartmentalizing a part

50:39

of their mind. If

50:42

ahead of time you ask them, do you think this makes

50:44

sense? Do you think it's safe? Do

50:46

you think it's in your best interest? The person

50:48

would say, well, no, but in the moment, even

50:51

though everyone else can see

50:53

just how bizarre or self-destructive

50:55

or whatever it may be,

50:57

that person compartmentalizes and

50:59

is able to attempt the task at

51:02

hand without being inhibited or obstructed by

51:04

these other factors that would normally stop

51:06

them. So imagine somebody

51:08

who is psychotic. It should

51:10

be much easier to recognize that even

51:12

though part of their mind is saying

51:14

run, hide,

51:16

cover up, escape and

51:19

even though later on they can reflect

51:21

once they're out of the delusion and

51:23

say, what I did was wrong, the

51:26

fact is in that moment or afterward

51:28

for the period of time that they're

51:30

still in that delusion, they could have

51:33

a number of contradictory or competing thoughts

51:35

that don't make sense in a normal

51:37

situation, but in the midst of a

51:39

delusion, it just

51:42

happens and we have

51:44

to accept if we can show

51:46

that this does seem like a

51:48

plausible and credible explanation that the

51:50

person truly was not in control

51:52

of their mind and actions. world

52:00

might never lessen the suffering of

52:02

the victim. He's simply

52:04

pointing out that a tragedy doesn't

52:07

need to be criminal to be

52:09

heart-breaking. Having said

52:11

all of that, whenever I discuss tragic cases

52:13

like this one, I always acknowledge that if

52:16

I were the loved one of somebody who

52:18

was murdered or violated in some way by

52:20

somebody who was in the midst of a

52:22

psychotic episode, I would have a really hard

52:24

time accepting everything that I've said. I

52:27

would have a hard time believing that they deserve

52:29

to walk free after they've got proper treatment that

52:31

can be shown that they're no longer a danger

52:33

to society. I would want

52:35

vengeance. I understand all of that. That's

52:38

the hat of somebody who unfortunately had to

52:40

see a loved one suffer because

52:42

of some mental illness. But

52:45

as a psychologist, I have to look at the science. I have

52:47

to look at the facts and I have to look at the

52:49

evidence. And if I were

52:51

an expert witness in Mr. Race's case,

52:53

I do believe that based on the

52:55

preponderance of evidence, I would find that

52:57

he was not criminally responsible for all

52:59

the reasons I've mentioned. Glenn's

53:02

actions destroyed lives in a

53:04

single stroke. Yet

53:06

schizophrenia took his life apart

53:09

gradually, one piece at a

53:11

time. Beginning with his

53:13

education and ending with his

53:15

freedom. Follow
