Steven TRUSCOTT's 'poor Mom' spent decades fighting on his behalf
The matriarch of a military family endured divorce and disappointment
before seeing justice done
By Lisa FITTERMAN,
Special to The Globe and Mail, Page S7
Doris Truscott
BRENNAN would tell her children that when they
were older, they'd look back on their youth and want to live
it all over again. Childhood, she was wont to say, is the most
precious and beautiful time of life.
"Poor
Mom," her most famous son, Steven
TRUSCOTT, once said to
journalist Bill Trent. "How could she know that the soft, golden
days of my childhood would one day come to an abrupt, tragic
end and that she would be visiting me in a jail?"
Back in 1950s, Mrs.
BRENNAN was known as Dot
TRUSCOTT, a traditional
air force wife and mother of four who spent her time cooking,
cleaning, doing endless loads of laundry and ensuring that her
boisterous offspring minded their manners. From the family's
small clapboard house in Clinton, Ontario, she was the boss who
tolerated no insubordination. Petite and plainspoken, it was
her way to strike a balance between strictness and love.
In June, 1959, Mrs.
BRENNAN was doing what she did every year:
making plans for summer vacation and occasionally socializing
with her husband, Dan, in the sergeants' mess. On June 10, everything
began to unravel. That's when Leslie
HARPER, the father of 12-year-old
Lynne, showed up on the doorstep, saying he'd been told that
one of the Truscott boys had seen her. She hadn't come home the
night before. The family was frantic. Steven told him that he'd
given her a lift on his bike to the corner and that she'd hitched
a ride on the highway.
When Lynne's body was found in the nearby bush, investigators
focused on the 14-year-old who seemed to have been the last person
to see her alive. It was ridiculous, Mrs.
BRENNAN knew. Her tall,
handsome and shy second son, who excelled at track and field
and liked to fish in his spare time, couldn't have committed
the grisly crime he was accused of. How could the authorities,
whom she'd always respected, pin this horror on him?
She would learn to fight back, grimly and with a singular sense
of purpose. She fought through his arraignment and his trial,
sitting behind him and whispering words of encouragement and
testifying that with four active kids, she had to do laundry
more than once a week and that a dirty pair of jeans was not
exceptional.
She fought against the shocking sentence to hang by his neck
until he was dead (later commuted to life in prison), and she
fought all the way up to the Supreme Court of Canada to have
the conviction overturned. She fought without help from the air
force, even as her family moved from Clinton into a secondhand
trailer in a park near the small-town Ontario jail where her
son was first held. And throughout, she fought to keep her family
together and to shield her other children from the trauma.
"She instilled in Steven the air force way: Keep your emotions
in check, stand firm in the face of adversity and never back
down," said investigative journalist Julian Sher, who chronicled
the family's struggle in the book Until You Are Dead. "She was
efficient, she was dedicated, she was a whirlwind and she was
to be reckoned with."
Mrs. BRENNAN once told Mr. Sher that she had to draw on all of
her military grit to survive. "I think being a serviceperson,
you learn to accept things more and make do with what you have,"
she recalled. "Your world has turned completely around, but you
push it to the back of your mind and you look ahead. Nothing
more could happen that could be worse, so it's got to get better."
But it wouldn't get better, not for a long time.
Born Doris
BOWERS,
Mrs.
BRENNAN was an air force child herself.
Her father was an engineer and worked at one point on an air-sea
rescue boat. Dan
TRUSCOTT, whom she met in 1942, worked on that
boat, too; he first came by the
BOWERS home as a family friend
but soon dropped all pretence as the relationship with Doris
heated up. The couple married and had four children.
Along the way, they were stationed for various periods on bases
near Vancouver, Winnipeg, Edmonton, Quebec City and Rivers, Manitoba,
where they lived in a shack with an outdoor toilet. It wasn't
an easy life, but Mrs.
BRENNAN had been ready all her life to
take on the challenges of raising a family within the confines
of the military. New schools and new Friends were par for the
course.
Her son's arrest and what followed turned everything she knew
on its head. After the trial, she worked at three part-time jobs,
in a bakery, a grocery store and a cafeteria, to help keep the
family afloat and to pay for gas for the monthly car trips to
and from Collins Bay Penitentiary near Kingston, where Steven
would serve the bulk of his sentence.
Mac STIENBURG, the Collins Bay chaplain who became a surrogate
father to Mr.
TRUSCOTT in prison and with whom the young man
first lived when he was paroled, said the parents never let him
see how scared and frustrated they were.
"They would spend time in the chapel and they'd pass on family
tidbits, keeping him up to date," Mr.
STIENBURG said. "They had
very natural, newsy conversations. They never got into that 'poor
you' or 'poor me' mindset."
The chaplain, now retired, said his most poignant memory of the
mother and son was her visit in May, 1967, after they'd lost
a Supreme Court bid to have the verdict overturned. After placing
their faith in the ability of the judges to recognize the case
as a circumstantial fiction, she was devastated, but Mr.
STIENBURG
said that didn't stop her driving out to the prison to speak
to Mr. TRUSCOTT face to face.
"It was after-hours and because of the way it was happening,
I was granted permission to monitor the visit," he recalled.
"She did the exact right thing. She said, 'This isn't the end
of it. We'll go on and see what we can do.' She was so strong
and determined, sitting there in this cold visiting room, and
I think Steve drew strength from her."
Indeed, Mrs.
BRENNAN grasped at any chance to clear her son's
name. When Isabel LeBourdais, a Toronto journalist, first wrote
to the Truscotts to express her interest in writing a magazine
exposé about why a 14-year-old would be tried as an adult and
given the death penalty, the two women began to forge a Friendship
made stronger by the fact that Ms. LeBourdais had a son only
a little older than Mr.
TRUSCOTT.
Ms. LeBourdais eventually decided that the story was one of wrongful
conviction and too big to tell within the limited scope of a
magazine. Instead, she wrote The Trial of Steven Truscott, a
book she dedicated to Mrs.
BRENNAN "with affection and profound
respect."
"It really summed up their relationship," said the author's son,
Julien LeBourdais. "They were two mothers with sons close in
age and one of the things we always say to people is, 'I know
how you feel.' But we don't really know. We can't know. You can
only feel awe."
No matter how strong Mrs.
BRENNAN was, the ordeal did take its
toll. At one point, she took tranquilizers to get through the
long days and even longer nights, while Mr.
STIENBURG said she
was disappointed by administrative decisions that her son must
live under an assumed name when he was paroled and that he must
live with the chaplain instead of coming home.
Her marriage to Dan
TRUSCOTT unravelled while their son was in
prison, a casualty of the pressure. Although she married again,
the union didn't last and she spent her latter years living outside
Ottawa near three of her children.
In an e-mail sent to supporters, Mr.
TRUSCOTT's wife, Marlene,
wrote that Mrs.
BRENNAN was an inspiration to them all. Although
the family declined to make any further comment, it seems clear
she will be remembered as the fierce, stalwart mother who refused
to give up on her son - the mother who, last summer, finally
saw justice done when the Ontario Court of Appeal quashed the
conviction, calling it a "miscarriage of justice."
She lived long enough to see it and for that, she was happy.
Doris (Dot)
BRENNAN died at the Ottawa Heart Institute on December 17,
2007. She was 82. She is survived by children Ken (Lenora), Steven
(Marlene), Bill (Carol) and Barb, and grandchildren David, Dwayne,
Ryan, Leslie, Devon, Crystal and Tom.

on through his niece and nephew and their families Patsy Ann
Reagh McMINN of Saint Thomas and Clarence
VALLANCE of Ottawa. Don
was born and raised in Grand Coulee, Saskatchewan, where his
predecessors were among the first settlers of Saskatchewan, and
also the founders of Confederation with his maternal great uncle
- Sir Charles Tupper. He signed up for World War 2 in 1939 and
was shipped overseas to England where he was promoted to Sandhurst
College for Officer Training. After serving in England, Holland
and Italy in World War 2 with the Canadian Army Medical Corp.
and then the Armoured Tank Corp., Dad brought his war bride back
home and settled in London, Ontario where he completed his Batchelor's
Degree at the University of Western Ontario. He went on to a
long and successful career with Wyeth Canada, where he set records
for sales in Southwestern Ontario. His friendly nature and humour
brought him many life long Friends and acquaintances throughout
the Southwestern Ontario region. In the early fifties, Don and
Jill settled in Owen Sound, where they raised their 3 children.
He was proud of his long relationship with the Grey and Simcoe
Foresters, Knox United Church, and the infamous Friday Night
Bridge Club. We shall miss his western humor and his true love
of people. Thanks you to Knox United Church, the Toronto Dominion
Bank and especially Summit Place where he received exceptional
care and compassion. We'd also like to make known our special
appreciation to Big Boots Barry, his bridge partner and Border
Collie when he needed it the most. Friends may call at the Breckenridge-Ashcroft
