It's been three years, but it looks like the white-wash of Robert Dziekanski's killing is being given a proper examination... And unsurprisingly, things aren't looking so good for the officers involved.
I remember when this story first broke, and the Mounties' claims of exactly how the event went down happened to blatantly contradict the youtube video that was uploaded shortly thereafter. They revised their statements, and promised to investigate the matter themselves and - quelle surprise! - found that they hadn't done anything wrong.
I'm glad the blatant miscarriage of justice is being reviewed. Nothing can bring Mr. Dziekanski back, but once this is done hopefully his mother will be able to get some closure.
Cops must absolutely hate the age of cell phone video cameras.

Well I'm glad this just hasn't been swept under the carpet. It was sad that this happened in the first place, but I'm glad that they are taking steps to get the family justice.
ReplyDeleteThough I wonder what, if any, charges will ever be laid against those police officers.
