Camera was needed

We must now listen to Supt. Derek Cooke try to convince us that Alvin Wright indeed had a knife and not a stapler.

Editor: Robert Dziekanski’s tragic death at the hands of the RCMP and their subsequent cover up was a wake-up call to us all.

Unfortunately, it appears when there is no handy Good Samaritan around with a camera, the RCMP are right back at it.

Enter Langley RCMP Supt. Derek Cooke, doing his best to exonerate his fellow RCMP officer in the tragic death of Alvin Wright. I guess without the hidden camera, we must now listen to Supt. Cooke try to convince us that Alvin indeed had a knife and not a stapler.
