Police officer can't recall night teen went missing


The second of two Saskatoon, Saskatchewan, police officers once suspected in the death of a Native teenager testified in a judicial inquiry on Thursday.

Const. Brad Senger said he doesn't remember looking for Neil Stonechild the night the 17-year-old teen went missing in 1990. He denied having anything to do with Stonechild's death.

The hearing phase of the inquiry ended yesterday with the deputy police chief under an internal investigation for allegedly lying to the public. The police have launched another investigation into Senger, who admitted on the stand he once falsified a alcohol breathalyzer test.
