This episode deals with details of violence. \n\nIn August 2015, 33-year-old Myles Gray was making a delivery for his wholesale florist business in B.C. when he confronted a woman who was watering her lawn in the midst of an extended drought. The police were called. Within an hour, Gray \u2013 who was unarmed \u2013 was dead. His list of injuries \u2013 including a fractured voice box, several broken bones, brain hemorrhaging and a ruptured testicle \u2013 was so extensive that forensic experts could not pinpoint the exact cause of death. \n\nThe officers involved are speaking publicly for the first time since Gray\u2019s death at a coroner\u2019s inquest. CBC\u2019s Rhianna Schmunk joins guest host Alex Panetta to explain what we\u2019re learning about what happened to Myles Gray, and his family\u2019s hopes for answers and accountability.\n\nFor transcripts of this series, please visit: https://www.cbc.ca/radio/frontburner/transcripts
