Daughter of murdered N.S. woman seeks more open discussion [Video]

HALIFAX –

The daughter of a Nova Scotia woman killed by her husband is calling for greater public discussion about domestic violence, saying she learned too late about the warning signs in her mother’s relationship.

Brenda Tatlock-Burke was killed on Oct. 18, 2024, and since then four other Nova Scotia women have been killed by men who then took their own lives. Tatlock-Burke’s daughter, Tara Graham, said in an interview Friday that it was heartbreaking for her family to hear of the latest deaths.

On Sunday, investigators found the body of a 60-year-old woman in Mahone Bay, N.S., who they say was killed by her partner before he killed himself. Another high-profile case occurred on New Year’s Eve in Halifax, when a woman and her father were shot dead in a car by the woman’s boyfriend.
