MONTREAL—Quebec’s ombudsman has criticized the way a social worker handled the case of the Quebec mosque shooter after he allegedly told her in confidence he regretted not having murdered more people, according to a report obtained by The Canadian Press. The report also said Cayouette didn’t follow protocol after Bissonnette told her he wished more Muslims died in his shooting rampage. Bissonnette shot six men dead in a Quebec City mosque in January 2017. Cayouette, who works for an organization in Quebec City that offers mental health services to inmates, began meeting with Bissonnette in jail in February 2017. Benoit Cote, director of the community group that employs Cayouette, said Friday that his employee feels she did the right thing.
