Here & Now

It brings the Rock to life with hard-hitting news reports, surprising stories and interviews with some of Newfoundland and Labrador's most adored and abhorred. Since 1965, Here & Now has been reporting from the province on everything from the seal hunt to the job hunt, from the despair of the Davis Inlet community to the sweeping 2007 election win for premier Danny Williams. CBC Television's decision to cut the show to 30 minutes in 2000, rolling it into a national Canada Now news hour, met vociferous protest. All regional newscasts returned to an hour in 2007.

Conviction, but no closure, in Worthman and Lockyer murder case

Broadcast Date: May 28, 2009

For Beryl Worthman, there is little solace in the sentencing of the man who helped kill her son and his girlfriend some 16 years earlier. Joey Oliver was arrested in 2007 for assisting in the killings of a young Newfoundland couple, Dale Worthman and Kimberly Lockyer. But more than two years later, in May 2009, the manslaughter sentence brings no closure or satisfaction. According to Oliver, the killer is still out there — and he's more than willing to say who it is. As we see in this 2009 live CBC-TV report, it makes for a dramatic and confusing story that is still missing its ending.

Conviction, but no closure, in Worthman and Lockyer murder case

• Joey Oliver was sentenced to 15 years in prison for his role in the deaths of Dale Worthman and Kimberly Lockyer. Oliver lured the couple to a wooded area for what he said was supposed to have been a beating, but insisted he did not know that the couple would be shot.

• The court was told that Oliver identified Shannon Murrin, who was found not guilty of the 1994 slaying of British Columbia schoolgirl Mindy Tran, as the shooter. The Crown conceded before the court that it could not corroborate Oliver's claim about Murrin. In 2007 Murrin identified himself as a suspect in the shootings, but said he had no role in them. He has not been charged in the case.
