Constable Don Shannon was working undercover in September of 2010 and followed King from Metcalf Street to Greendale where he was stopped and placed in the back of Messer's patrol car. King was wanted by the RCMP for a break and enter.
Back at detention, Shannon says he booked King whom he describes as co-operative, even docile and did not hear any complaints from him about his treatment.
King was later taken to hospital. A paramedic's report describes King as uncooperative but does state he had minor abrasions and complained about pain behind his right ear.
There was also testimony about an encounter with Brett McAdam in the parking lot of the Canadian Tire in September of 2010. McAdam alleges Messer threatened him.
McAdam's car had been flagged by Messer for possibly being involved with breakins along Westfield Road.
Mike King, who lives along Westfield Road, told the court a car matching that description stopped in his driveway and he had seen the driver get out and look in the window of his home.
Constable Neil Fowler told the court he searched McAdam's car in the parking lot of Canadian Tire and found an address book with the names of drug dealers.
There was a private conversation between Messer and McAdam at the side of the store. Fowler testified after that was over, McAdam told Messer "If I hear anything, I'll let you know" and there was nothing in how they were acting which indicated anything out of the ordinary.
