Cop contradicts fellow officer in Braidwood inquiry

By IRWIN LOY, 24 HOURS

The RCMP officer who jolted Robert Dziekanski with a Taser weapon is contradicting a fellow officer in testimony Tuesday at the inquiry into the Polish immigrant's death.

RCMP Const. Kwesi Millington insists he has never discussed the Oct. 14, 2007 incident that left Dziekanski dead, with the three other officers involved.

It contradicts testimony given by RCMP Const. Bill Bentley, who told the Braidwood inquiry last week the group recounted their version of the events during a "critical incident debrief" after the incident.

"What I do remember is we did have a critical incident debrief where we all told our version of events that transpired that evening," Bentley testified last week.

Not true, Millington said Tuesday when presented with his fellow officer's testimony.

"I don't remember any of these discussions," Millington said, agreeing that his opinion contradicts that of Bentley's testimony.
