In memory of our brother and son, Robert Bagnell, who died moments after being tasered by police in Vancouver, British Columbia on June 23, 2004. Bob was the 7th Canadian to die and the 110th in North America.

RCMP facts? I wonder if there is such a thing!?

At the 2005 Arizona Press Club Awards, Mr. Anglen won first place in the Investigative reporting category. He was the recipient of the Don Bolles Award for his report entitled "Taser tied to 'independent' study that backs stun gun'. “As part of an extraordinarily thorough investigation of Taser International, Anglen uncovered ‘smoking gun’ documents that showed the manufacturer was heavily involved in the key study that purported the devices are safe. Anglen also uncovered conflicts of interest and documented wide-spread problems with Taser safety — a matter of national and international public interest.”
In 2006, Mr. Anglen was a runner up for the Arizona Press Club's Virg Hill Journalist of the Year award. Peter Bhatia of The Oregonian wrote “Robert Anglen is an investigative reporter, pure and simple. Clearly, he is a reporter who, once he sinks his teeth into something, stays with it until the story is done. His ongoing work around the company that makes Tasers speaks to that."

This comment is unworthy of your site. Making such blanket statements is counter-productive and offensive to all the good cops out there.
Am sure that this site does not dishonour the multitude of police officers who do their job in humane competence, nor does it ever appear to be anti police. Rather, it questions the higher authority who continue to insult our intelligence as they insist on defending and covering up this abuse and misuse of the taser. It is a sad testimony and should not be acceptable to those good police officers who continue to protect and serve Canadians. To the above commentator, I suggest you delve deeper into this site and perhaps consider the majority of Canadians who are in agreement with what is written here.
