Eyewitness waffles on Moshenko’s role in fatal assault
A young man who testified for the Crown in Wayne Moshenko’s second-degree murder trial said he witnessed the defendant participate in the brutal beating that killed his uncle.
But during cross-examination on Thursday afternoon Ricky Bear’s nephew, Harley Bear, wasn’t able to clearly testify to Moshenko’s role in the beating.
One of the first things Bear said after he took the stand on Thursday morning was, “I watched my uncle get murdered.”
Now 18-years-old, Bear was 16 on Aug. 6, 2011 when the fatal assault took place. He said his uncle, who was with a group of men including Moshenko and Cody Walker, picked him up in his wife’s truck on the morning of that day.
