The families of the victims of the mass shooting in a remote Canadian town are grappling with unrelenting grief as details emerge about those killed in the country’s deadliest mass shooting in years. Authorities said Thursday that the 18-year-old shooter killed her 39-year-old mother, Jennifer Jacobs, and 11-year-old stepbrother, Emmett Jacobs, in their northern British Columbia home on Tuesday before heading to the nearby Tumbler Ridge Secondary School and opening fire, killing five children and a teacher before killing herself. The motive remains unclear. Among the dead was 12-year-old student Kylie Smith, whose family remembered her as “the light in our family.” The family of victim Zoey Benoit described her as “the strongest little girl you could meet.”
