Story summary

A Saskatoon judge has reserved his decision on whether to forfeit a convicted murderer’s pickup truck. Curtis Dagenais, who shot and killed two RCMP officers—Robin Cameron and Marc Bourdages—in 2006, is the subject of this case. The judge plans to announce his ruling in December regarding the fate of Dagenais’ 1986 GMC 1500 truck, which has been stored at RCMP headquarters in Regina since the killings and bears bullet holes from the incident. In 2009, a jury convicted Dagenais of two counts of first-degree murder and one count of attempted murder for also injuring another officer, Michelle Knopp.
