So the whole interview is based on wether he killed his wife or not yet he pretends to be so surprised by the question if he killed his wife??!!! “Sorry”? Really bud that there tells me all I need to know. Guilty
Published April 21, 2022 3:53 p.m. CDT A spokesperson for Chief Coroner Lisa Lapointe confirmed to CTV News Thursday that she has directed the investigation to be reopened. "The Coroners Act permits the chief coroner to reopen an investigation if new evidence arises or if the chief coroner considers it would be in the public interest. In this case, the chief coroner has determined that it is in the public interest for another coroner to undertake a new investigation to include any new or additional information that may assist the public's understanding of Arlene Westervelt's death," the spokesperson said in an email.
I can read crookedness, deceit, guilt and denial written ALL over Arlene's husband's face. He's a LIAR. Shame on him and the high ranking officer who covered up this murder/strangulation. He murdered her out in the boon-docs and dropped her dead body in the water hoping she would never be found. When is there not an autopsy performed on a person whose death was suspicious? NEVER, unless there is a cover-up. I hope that Arlene's family gets justice. This is the 2nd time I have watched this and all I can say is How shamelessly AWFUL.
*while being interviewed for a true crime show specifically featuring the death of his wife which he is the sole suspect* Interviewer: Did you kill your wife? Burt: (after a bewildered pause..) Sorry!?. Someone tell Burt head to go back to acting school, he isn’t getting an Oscar for that pitiful performance.
Shows like this uncover more than official investigations. Great reporting. 48 Hours, 20/20, Dateline. Relentless Bloodhounds. Respect. Arlene's husband is as evasive as a Fox. No Life Jacket, No Autopsy, His wife's a strong swimmer, he doesn't answer simple questions. A lot of things stink.
This is the case study for a sociopath who killed his wife. She might even have been dead before they left the house for the 2nd trip. His soft voice, his whole behaviour tells. Why don't we teach our daughters to never stay with a toxic partner after having seen a divorce lawyer. This guy is a pathologic liar. And a murderer!
I believe the Husband is a jerk and I don't think the smirk on his face at one point during the interview was appropriate... this man is lying through his teeth.
I would rather have the Keystone cops investigate than the RCMP. The Mounties today are not the Mounties of old. They are too Political these days. Look at the debacle in Ottawa over the convoy protest.
Her husband is so guilty. I like his terrible acting when the reporter asked if he killed his wife? He doesn't answer right away. He doesn't answer right away. Pauses like he's surprised. Then answers with a question. Fake!
Bert is guilty. he killed her. He can't talk about things, that would be his lawyer and that is how it is, him saying not to, but him is her executor, that is also odd.
What a shambles this whole situation was, people need to be held accountable for the way they handled the case and what they should have done. There are lots of questions that need to be answered and they can only be answered in court. Really hoping this family get justice.
Hearing that mom speak, just broke my heart!!! I can't wait to see this one!! Imma just go ahead and say HE DID IT!! (the husband usually is the culprit)) Thank you Crime Beat!!
I've watched so many crime shows over the years...and I have to say jury is still out for me... really undecided... I would love to hear how his friends seen him as a grieving spouse...
How would she drown and why wasn’t she wearing a life jacket they both were either drunk n tipped boat over by doing something stupid on a boat or he pushed n drowned her. But didn’t coroner state no foul play? What was toxicology report. And the splitting hairs if she was strangled how did she break her neck if not strangled? They just don’t want to solve case bc too many hands in high places are in the pot. That family knows n shame on brother siding w suspect?? What is in it for him?
I honestly don’t know what to think in this case, however with not being cleared of charges he will live a lonely and miserable life, I pray that justice is served! Rip beautiful soul
I'm sorry but to me first red flag was not wanting autopsy. Every death is usually followed by autopsy. Accident or murder. If not wanting it something's not right. I don't believe the part of her trying to hang onto canoe n punchin him for tryin to help either. Red flag 2. Lat but not least I can't believe she wouldnt be wearing or wanting to wear one esp since they said she wasn't experienced swimmer. Red flag 3
You see the reason why am afraid to date or be in a relationship these men are to controlling and everything is about them is money he didn’t want to the woman to get what she deserved half of his assets wicked man god don’t sleep what ever in dark always come to light I pray her family gets justice
I listened to the podcast of this show and thought I would look to see if there was a video because a few of the women to the victim sounded as if they were doing the crocodile tear thing....Sure enough, try as they may, most of them were trying so hard to produce tears which I found disturbing. This whole thing was disturbing....People are weird.
I wonder if they found food in her stomach during the delayed autopsy.After their romantic supper? As im betting, there was no supper. Murder was the only thing on the menu. Can a reporter or someone close to this investigation check autopsy report ?
She should ask for help and support from everyone and everywhere when she decided to end the marriage. But she chose to handle by herself and didn’t manage😢😢
I’m torn! He is either the best actor or he didn’t kill her. Was there water in her lungs. If he strangled her, she was a physically strong woman and certainly she would have fought back? They just ate before and maybe she did fall in and get a bad cramp!?
Sorry guys he didn’t do it . He’s body language dose not lie . Regardless of what the opposition has to say they aren’t right . If he did it he sure is acting innocent in that interview
I'm sure that many of us would like to have a sister in law like in this case.She is one very strong woman. I feel so very very sorry for the family of the poor deceased woman.Noreen Australia 🦘

Yeah, it doesn't work if it's an accusation he's faced so many times already. He'd be ready for it. That was really suspicious...
That's what you call a "dead" giveaway in a murder case😳
i agree...that moment says it all!! his reaction is priceless....
Omg this made me laugh so hard...and i havent even watched the scene yet
The part about the Bert having to “dive down” to grab life jackets doesn’t make any sense. Life jackets are buoyant & wouldn’t sink 🥴
Thanks for this newly uploaded episode. I'm addicted to this show. 🖤
The SIL is determined. I love her. Justice for Arlene.
Heartbreaking. A narc is dangerous when a woman has had enough of his emotional abuse.
I love this channel.best journalism ever.
An absolute botched investigation. The case should be reopened
It was
She was divorcing him, now she’s dead! Hmmmmm
And in his interview he says he had absolutely NO IDEA she wanted a divorce.
30+ years, but no idea she wanted a divorce. I CALL BS.
That was the most cringy "sorry?" I've seen or heard!
Shows like this uncover more than official investigations.
Great reporting.
48 Hours, 20/20, Dateline.
Relentless Bloodhounds.
Respect.
Arlene's husband is as evasive as a Fox.
No Life Jacket, No Autopsy, His wife's a strong swimmer, he doesn't answer simple questions.
A lot of things stink.
the RCMP is horrible...why haven't they been abolished yet?? i dnt get it... toddlers could investigate better than they can
The way he picked up the can of soda and drank it like she asked if the sky was blue instead of did he unalive his wife
May her soul rest in peace and May God grant peace to the family she left behind.
This is the case study for a sociopath who killed his wife. She might even have been dead before they left the house for the 2nd trip. His soft voice, his whole behaviour tells. Why don't we teach our daughters to never stay with a toxic partner after having seen a divorce lawyer. This guy is a pathologic liar. And a murderer!
The way he answers the questions tells he is not truthfull at all..
Weird how women have "accidents" causing death right when their getting ready to file for divorce. Coincidence? I think not.
Great to have another episode of a quality show.
boom. I love that question right off the beat. "so, did you kill your wife?" no time to think and you get to see the raw emotion
How does a canoe capsize in such calm waters?
I believe the Husband is a jerk and I don't think the smirk on his face at one point during the interview was appropriate... this man is lying through his teeth.
I would rather have the Keystone cops investigate than the RCMP. The Mounties today are not the Mounties of old. They are too Political these days. Look at the debacle in Ottawa over the convoy protest.
Well, was there water in her lungs or not???
YOU'RE BACK! Is this that show from canada that I love, that took a break because of some kind of contract dispute? WELCOME BACK!
Crime beat i listen 👂 to your podcasts always -🥇good job crime beat crew🙌🏻
I wonder if he ever got the pics of there last day 2gether.🤔
Justice will be served! My heart breaks for Arlene's family.
Finally you’re back!!!!!!!
Was there water in her lungs? I didn't hear that mentioned.
Her husband is so guilty. I like his terrible acting when the reporter asked if he killed his wife? He doesn't answer right away. He doesn't answer right away. Pauses like he's surprised. Then answers with a question. Fake!
Can u post all the series that are hidden please?
She was struggling to drown herself and he is a valiant hero who was just trying to save her.
Thanks for the upload I have been wondering what happened to this show.
Bert is guilty. he killed her. He can't talk about things, that would be his lawyer and that is how it is, him saying not to, but him is her executor, that is also odd.
If my husband died like this I would demand autopsies on why he died . He prob hit her over the head with object .
He’s guilty
RIP Arlene. Gone but not FORGOTTEN.
What a shambles this whole situation was, people need to be held accountable for the way they handled the case and what they should have done. There are lots of questions that need to be answered and they can only be answered in court. Really hoping this family get justice.
Though they were not wearing life jacket 😮shelley ur an amazing woman ❤
so happy for this to be back!!!!!!!!!!
The next of kin can say yes or no to an autopsy? News to me.
Great video as always
Hearing that mom speak, just broke my heart!!! I can't wait to see this one!! Imma just go ahead and say HE DID IT!! (the husband usually is the culprit)) Thank you Crime Beat!!
Haha whatever happened to innocent until...but yea I have to agree with you before watching it too lol
You’re back!!!
He wasn’t convincing as far as I am concerned, I reckon he is guilty.
The moment he said I can't answer that...my lawyer advised me not to answer that...he was busted....
I've watched so many crime shows over the years...and I have to say jury is still out for me... really undecided... I would love to hear how his friends seen him as a grieving spouse...
The husband looks like Hannibal Lecter to me, his acting sucks though.
How would she drown and why wasn’t she wearing a life jacket they both were either drunk n tipped boat over by doing something stupid on a boat or he pushed n drowned her. But didn’t coroner state no foul play? What was toxicology report. And the splitting hairs if she was strangled how did she break her neck if not strangled? They just don’t want to solve case bc too many hands in high places are in the pot. That family knows n shame on brother siding w suspect?? What is in it for him?
He never loved her and also he had no remorse!!!
Oh he definitely did it.
That so-called husband is disgusting
I honestly don’t know what to think in this case, however with not being cleared of charges he will live a lonely and miserable life, I pray that justice is served! Rip beautiful soul
this husband is a BIG OLD LIAR
Shame on the RCMP.....definitely believe he is guilty!
He is guilty
Evil màn😮
This guy is guilty AF….come on…really?….”my lawyer says I can’t comment “….if you are innocent you can speak the truth..nothing do hide
WHAT DID SHE SEE IN THAT STARRY-EYED FOOL.
R.I.P. Arlene
This makes me angry
Sorry is something you are not husband
Gately needs to just go away, no good to anyone. fool!!! How he is still working is unbelievable.
2 people go canoeing, without life jackets, in deep water, and neither are strong swimmers...what could possibly go wrong
Bullsht clearly he killed her.
He said he loaded the canoes up and went home to shop and make a picnic supper.
And went back out.
Yes but not for supper
Why wasn't there more thorough discussion on her autopsy?
I'm sorry but to me first red flag was not wanting autopsy. Every death is usually followed by autopsy. Accident or murder. If not wanting it something's not right. I don't believe the part of her trying to hang onto canoe n punchin him for tryin to help either. Red flag 2.

Scary……well the drowning do get violent….but who knows
Interesting story
I listened to the podcast of this show and thought I would look to see if there was a video because a few of the women to the victim sounded as if they were doing the crocodile tear thing....Sure enough, try as they may, most of them were trying so hard to produce tears which I found disturbing. This whole thing was disturbing....People are weird.
In his interview everything was about him, he was clearly obsessed by his wife and the thought of her leaving him drove him to kill her.
BERT IS SHADY AF!!!!!
GUILTY AS SIN!!!!!💯
Despite how ridiculously biased this documentary is....
It sounds like a tragic accident to me.
I wonder if they found food in her stomach during the delayed autopsy.After their romantic supper? As im betting, there was no supper. Murder was the only thing on the menu. Can a reporter or someone close to this investigation check autopsy report ?
Good ol’ rcmp.
She should ask for help and support from everyone and everywhere when she decided to end the marriage. But she chose to handle by herself and didn’t manage😢😢
Absolute tragedy. Her husband was the killer!! Enough said!
I’m torn! He is either the best actor or he didn’t kill her. Was there water in her lungs. If he strangled her, she was a physically strong woman and certainly she would have fought back? They just ate before and maybe she did fall in and get a bad cramp!?
I don’t know about this one
wow really? that guy is guilty def
Is this a repeat?
Noncence from husband 😅😅😅
Very suspicious!
Wow she looked like her mom❤
Greed kills
Get a psychic in to clarify thinking
Get another autopsy
So, did he kill her or no?
The woman wants to divorce Her husband and go out in a dangerous situation.. .. . That's a bit stupid !!!!
The guy is Australian. The first rule in boating in Oz is wear a jacket. No excuse and if. She was as weak swimmer, more so!
Don't.lie
Sorry guys he didn’t do it . He’s body language dose not lie . Regardless of what the opposition has to say they aren’t right .
If he did it he sure is acting innocent in that interview
I truly don’t believe he had anything to do with her death. I think her sisters didn’t like him from the beginning. I believe he loved Arlene
I'm sure that many of us would like to have a sister in law like in this case.She is one very strong woman. I feel so very very sorry for the family of the poor deceased woman.Noreen Australia 🦘
