I guess Monty will be assigned a bicycle or relive his joie de vivre tasering non-compliant kids on behalf of the Greater Vancouver Transportation Authority "Monty Robinson could face impaired charges in death of Orion Hutchinson By Staff Reporter, The ProvinceJune 9, 2009 Orion Hutchinson, 21, was killed while riding his motorcycle on Oct. 25, 2008.Photograph by: Handout, Hutchinson FamilyThe fate of an RCMP officer accused of killing a young man while driving drunk now rests in the hands of the Crown. Delta police announced Tuesday that they have recommended charges of dangerous driving causing death and impaired driving causing death against Cpl. Benjamin "Monty" Robinson. Robinson was one of the four Mounties at the scene of the fatal Tasering of Robert Dziekanski at the Vancouver International Airport on Oct. 14, 2007. He is alleged to have given the order to Taser the Polish immigrant. Orion Hutchinson, 21, was riding his motorcycle on 6th Avenue in Delta around 10:15 p.m. Oct. 25, 2008 when he collided with a Jeep driven by an off-duty RCMP officer at Gilchrist Drive. Hutchinson was thrown from his motorcycle and died at the scene. Delta police said at the time of the incident that the Jeep driver failed a breathalyzer test. Delta police say in a news release that a preliminary submission was made to Crown on May 12, but additional "supporting materials" were needed before charge approval would be considered. Investigators provided prosecutors with a comprehensive final report for review and charge approval on Monday. In March, Robinson tried unsuccessfully to have a driving ban issued after the Delta crash overturned. Robinson claimed that the adjudicator had erred in a number of ways, including failing to consider his post-driving consumption of alcohol. But B.C. Supreme Court Justice Mark McEwan found in his decision that, due in part to "inconsistency" in Robinson's statement at the scene, there was no basis to overturn the ban. Robinson, 38, was suspended with pay after the crash." theprovince.com
