One Year Later: RCMP Continue To Investigate Murder-Suicide In Saskatchewan

Darpan News Desk The Canadian Press, 15 Apr, 2016 12:12 PM

TISDALE, Sask. — RCMP say they will not be releasing details of their investigation into a mass murder-suicide of a couple and three children in Saskatchewan nearly one year ago.

Police say the investigation into the deaths is almost complete, but the public won't be learning more about what happened.

Mounties discovered the bodies of Latasha Gosling and three of her children in their mobile home in Tisdale last April 22.

Officers said at the time that Gosling's boyfriend, Steve O'Shaughnessy, had fled the trailer with their six-month-old girl and driven to Prince Albert, where he killed himself.

The baby was found unharmed.

A family member later revealed that O'Shaughnessy had taken photos of the bodies and sent copies to the cellphone of Gosling's estranged husband, the biological father of the three older children.

O'Shaughnessy's family said the oilfield worker suffered from mental- health problems, but had no history of violence, although Gosling's friends described him as controlling and jealous.
