A new political talk show featuring the key players and the best analysis, with host David Cochrane.

On this week's edition of On Point, host David Cochrane has a feature interview with Erin Breen, the lawyer representing the family of Don Dunphy. 

Dunphy was shot to death in his home in Mitchells Brook, St. Mary's Bay, on Easter Sunday, shortly after a Royal Newfoundland Constabulary officer arrived to ask him some questions. 

What happened during that conversation has not been disclosed, but the incident has fuelled a debate about policing, the security of politicians and the role of social media — particularly since Dunphy had been active on Twitter, and the premier's office had been notified 

Earlier this week, NDP Leader Earle McCurdy called for an inquiry into Dunphy's shooting. 

Breen says the family now wants an inquiry, too.
