BURNABY, B.C. — Several patterns have emerged after the last few Vancouver police witnesses testified at a coroner's inquest into the death of Myles Gray in August 2015.
The 14 officers who have testified so far have used the same language to describe Gray's behaviour as police struggled to restrain him, and many told the inquest they were so focused on their own actions, they don't have clear and complete recollections of what others were doing to restrain the 33-year-old.
Const. Tiffany Tan testified on Monday that she has been in numerous "dynamic, abnormal" situations working as an officer in the years since Gray's death, and she has never been told not to make handwritten notes at any other time. Several of the officers said they didn't speak with each other about the particulars of the struggle with Gray in the hours after his death, while two others told the inquest there was some kind of peer-support discussion that evening.
Although most of the officers testified that they didn't speak to each other much, if at all, several of them have used the same terms to describe Gray's behaviour. However, Spencer testified that Gray's face had become progressively more swollen throughout the struggle, particularly around his orbital bones.
