Thumbs up from me. This wasn't glorifying or glamorizing Roszko at all. The filmmakers focused on Roszko's previous run-ins with the RCMP. It exposed him as a paranoid sociopath, a homosexual pedophile, a drug addict, a dealer, and a thief. All of this combined with a disturbing gun obsession. My wife and I were shocked at what a slimeball he was and the lengths to which our 'justice' system protected him.

The RCMP were well reflected as were his victims and their families who were intimidated and manipulated into silence. The judges and laywers didn't come off so well.

It was well done and well acted, a fitting tribute to the fallen four. And yes, the RCMP and the families approved of the film.

Thumbs up from me as well. Reality check of some of the short-comings of our justice system. Far from perfect.
