Ipperwash witness dies in car accident

Update from the Hamilton Spectator :

"Deane is the third provincial police officer involved in the Ipperwash crisis to die before testifying before the inquiry. Insp. Dale Linton, the incident commander the night George was killed, died in a car crash six years ago. Another officer has also died"


Update from the Windsor Star says that the car Ken Deane was driving was hit from behind by a tracker-trailor. He had a passenger with him but it's not known what injuries he sustained.

Why isn't the press looking into this more? Why did the tractor-trailor hit him from behind? Was he ready to give more detail when he was expected to testify?

From yesterday:

Another Ipperwash Inquiry witness is dead - former police officer Kenneth Deane dies in a car accident on Saturday - report from Canadian Press

This makes a second Ipperwash Inquiry witness and police officer who has died in a car accident - Staff Sergeant Dale Linton also died.

The George family lawyer Murray Klippenstein comments there is a list of witnesses that have died. I have only heard of these two - and something certainly isn't right.

Why is there no reporting on the facts of these accidents? And were they accidents?
