Fatal shooting in Calgary was domestic violence

Global is reporting that "Madisson Cobb was shot to death inside a parkade, in the 8700 block of Horton Road, in the southwest Calgary community of Haysboro around 4:30 p.m. on Saturday, July 19, 2025. Police said it was a targeted shooting while the 23-year-old Cobb, who was from Okotoks, was walking to her vehicle after finishing work."

"On Tuesday, police announced 26-year-old Devon Bradley Malik of Calgary has been charged with first-degree murder. Police said Malik and Cobb were previously in a relationship that ended earlier this year."

"Global News has learned that just six weeks ago, Cobb had a restraining order issued against her former boyfriend. In her statement, filed in court, Cobb detailed intense harassment from the man following their breakup in January of this year, including dozens of calls and text messages. She said he also created fake social media accounts to try to contact her."

"The documents say Malik owned a gun, and at one point his aunt sent a message to Cobb telling her she feared for her safety. The restraining order banned Malik from being near Cobb’s home in Okotoks as well as her workplace, which was located in the shopping complex near Heritage Road and Macleod Trail where she lost her life."

This guy is a freak. Was that a legally obtained firearm? WTF happened? I have a restricted firearms license. The police do a criminal record search on me every day. This guy had a restraining order and two criminal charges of harassment against him. That's a red flag. The system failed her. 

Banning all firearms isn't the answer. Enforcing the laws that are already in place is. Domestic violence is seriously f*cked up. You break up then you start stalking her then kill her WTF. That is mentally deranged. When I went through my divorce a lifetime ago, I let my firearm license expire.

My ex had to sign and approve my renewal and I didn't want her to have anything to do with it. So I let it expire and renewed it many years later after she was no longer required to sign it. I never, ever had a desire to shoot or harm my ex. I just wanted to get as far away from her as humanly possible. 

So yes the system failed this young woman because it wasn't enforced. If it was an illegal gun why wasn't he searched? 

As with all the gun violence from drugs and addiction, we don't need new laws to create a police state. We simply need to enforce the laws we already have. The laws we're not enforcing. Enforcement is one of the Four Pillars. 

After the Nova Scotia Mass shooting, the fake news kept going off about the epidemic of domestic violence. That was misrepresented. There's not an epidemic of domestic violence and domestic violence had nothing to do with the Nova Scotia mass shooting. They guy was a swinger. They were in an open relationship. He wasn't a jealous controlling ex. He was a police agent. Yet any domestic violence is too much. 

It continuously comes back to not enforcing the laws that are already in place. Donnie McWhirter had illegal firearm and domestic violence convictions. Yet he was brought into the Witness Protection Program. As soon as he got out, his ex died of a lethal drug overdose. Who do you think gave her the lethal overdose? That murder is on IHIT and the CFSEU. 

Before he killed his co accused, Blaze called up a previous ex in the middle of the night anonymously and threatened to slit her throat. That was while he was still in Witness Protection. Since he did it anonymously she couldn't prove it was him and the police did nothing about it. They kept him on their payroll. 

Right now IHIT and the CFSEU pay his rent in Abbotsford where he rents out the front lawn to a guy in a trailer he sells crystal meth to all on the tax players dime. This is why there needs to be more financial accountability how tax dollars are spent. 

“The RCMP made us aware that Devon has a firearm that they were unable to find." If it was a legally obtained firearm he would have had to register where it was stored and let the police know where it was stored. That means it wasn't legally obtained.
