Alberta’s premier spoke to calls for an outside, independent investigation into the death of Jon Wells during an incident involving Calgary police last week.
Wells, a 42-year-old Blood Tribe man, died following a confrontation with three officers at the Carriage House Inn on Sept. 17.
The Alberta Serious Incident Response Team (ASIRT) is investigating the officers’ use of force.
It’s politician-speak for “Lie and distract until the heat dies down and then sweep this under the rug and move on”.
