註釋One of Canada's finest reporters reveals the true story of the murder in Somalia, the scapegoating of the wrong man, and the shocking cover-up by the Canadian army.
March 16, 1993. A Somali teenager is tortured and beaten to death by Canadian peacemakers from the Airborne Regiment. Kyle Brown, a young trooper from Edmonton, is initially present, but he commits only a minor offense. He is not there when Shidane Arone is killed, and he is later commended for coming forward with information.
Two weeks later, however, Brown is under arrest for torture and murder. Those most responsible go free and lower ranks are punished more. Kyle Brown, eventually convicted of torture and manslaughter, has become the scapegoat in one of the most shameful events in the history of the Canadian army.
