1935 Royal Canadian Mounted Police Killings
The 1935 Royal Canadian Mounted Police Killings were a series of murders of three Royal Canadian Mounted Police and one local constable from 5–8 October 1935. They began with the murders of Benito Constable William Wainwright and RCMP Constable John Shaw near Pelly, Saskatchewan by three Doukhobor men who had been in the custody of the officers. This led to a shoot which killed two additional RCMP officers in Banff, Alberta and the death of perpetrator Joeseph Posnikoff. The remaining two perpetrators were gunned down by civilian William Neish, as they were pursued by a combined posse of RCMP officers and armed civilian volunteers.
The ordeals involved RCMP detachments from three provinces in Western Canada and would remain one of the deadliest incidents in RCMP history until the Mayerthorpe Tragedy in 2005. With the death of all perpatrators, the motivations of the perpatrators remain unknown.
==Pelly Shooting==
The initial murders began late in the evening of 4 October 1935 when three local Doukhobor farmers in Benito, Manitoba including John Kalmakoff, Joseph Posnikoff, and Peter Woiken were apprehended by officer Wainwright and Shaw under suspicion of having been involved in a bank robbery and loaded into Shaw's unmarked police vehicle. As with common practice at the period, none of the men had been searched before they had entered the vehicle. For reasons unknown, both officers were attacked with knives and a .32 revolver that had been smuggled into the police vehicle at approximately 04:00 CST on 5 October 1935, en route to the RCMP detachment building in Pelly.
Wainwright was subsequently stabbed and shot with his own revolver, while Shaw was also stabbed and later shot three times with the smuggled .32 revolver as he attempted to ward off the attackers and drive the vehicle. The car crashed into a ditch, and the three perpetrators looted the vehicle leaving behind the corpses of the slain officers. Their bodies were discovered by a local farmer on 7 October 1935 and this was immediately reported to the authorities.
