Who is Elliot Chorny

/

Part 1 - Why did she do THAT

Halifax, NS - Feb 2025

When a six-year-old boy was stabbed in a random attack in downtown Halifax, shock and outrage followed. But as details emerged, a deeper, more troubling story came to light—one of untreated mental illness, missed warnings, and a system that seemed unable to prevent this tragedy.

In this episode, Jordan and Madelayne examine the case of Elliott Chorny (the 19 year old perpetrator) via publicly available documents, media reports, and Chorny’s own online writings. The resulting discussion reveal’s Chorny’s lifelong struggle with mental illness, her warnings of impending violence, and the many red flags that went unanswered.

Was this tragedy preventable? Did the system fail Elliott, her family, and most of all the young victim?

Part 2 - a Mother’s Account of a Preventable Tragedy

In this episode, Andrea Hancock shares the story of her daughter, Elliott Chorny—a young woman whose battle with mental illness, missed warnings, and a failing system led to an unthinkable tragedy.

Andrea reflects on the years of seeking help, the signs that something was dangerously wrong, and her gratitude toward the family of the young victim.

/

Chilliwack, BC - 1983

In this episode, Jordan Bonaparte and Madelayne Klein discuss Jo-Anne’s disappearance, the investigation, and the lingering questions that remain after 40 years.

The Disappearance of Devon Marsman (last seen Feb, 2022 in Halifax, NS)

/

16 year old Devon Marsman was last seen in late February of 2022, and since then there has been little in the way of reliable details, tips, or sightings.

The most significant thing those searching for him have learned is that Devon seemed to have maintained two separate sets of personal relationships. One group his parents knew about and another group they didn't.

As you may have guessed it’s the later group Devon have spent his last known days with... and their ever evolving stories have done nothing but obscure the trail left behind.

Part 1 - Recorded July 2022 (5 months after Devon’s disappearance)

In this episode we meet Theresa Gray, Devon's mom, and discuss the unexplained disappearance of her 16 year old son Devon Marsman.


Part 2 - Recorded Feb 2024 (2 years after Devon’s disappearance)

In this episode we catch up with Theresa Gray to discuss the unexplained disappearance of her 16 year old son Devon Marsman as it is understood on the second anniversary.

Part 3 - Breakthrough in Devon's Case
