The inquiry into the 1990 death of a Native teen in Saskatchewan, Canada, resumed this week.
Neil Stonechild, 17, was found frozen to death on the outskirts of town in Saskatoon. Many in the Native community suspect police involvement.
Testimony resumed with lawyers for police suggesting that a key witness may have been too drunk to remember what happened the night Stonechild was last seen alive. Jason Roy has testified that he saw Stonechild being put into a police cruiser.
