Key witness in death of Native man killed in accident
Monday, February 27, 2006

A former police officer who was convicted for shooting Ojibwe protester Dudley George to death was killed in a car accident on Saturday, just two weeks before he was to testify about his involvement in the controversy.

Kenneth Deane, 45, was acting sergeant for the Ontario Provincial Police at the time of the September 6, 1995, raid on Ipperwash Provincial Park. He shot and killed George and later served two years community service for criminal negligence.

George's death is now the subject of a high-profile inquiry that recently heard from former Ontarior premier Mike Harris. George's family believes Deane would have provided key testimony about the scandal.
