“Police had responded to calls for a man walking into traffic on the Lincoln Alexander Expressway near Upper Wentworth. He was ordered off the highway, complied and climbed up the embankment towards his townhouse.
The officers followed him behind a berm where, shortly thereafter, witnesses heard between three and eight rapid-fire gunshots.”

Just as promised in previous article I told you we’d keep you updated. The man who got shot on June 7th 2013 is known as Steve Mesic, who has a child on the way with his wife that he left behind. While Warren, Rob and I were doing street activism and raising awareness downtown Hamilton about these issues, we sychronisitically ran into one of Steve’s friends who described Steve as a non violent person who never got into trouble with police. At the exact same time another of one Steve friends driving in vehicle stopped and told us Steve was one of the best guys in the world. From the sounds of it Steve was a good guy and it comes as a shock to the people that know him, that police would perceive him as a threat.
On the day of the shooting Steve just checked himself out of the hospital after voluntarily admitting himself for a 72 hour assessment. No known details as to what his problem was or how he was feeling when he left. He was found walking home on the highway which is unusual. The police were called because of complaint of Steve walking on the highway and shortly after he was shot dead.
In all fairness, in my opinion Steve was temporarily mentally ill, speculating he had some type of depression which could’ve been the reason why he checked himself into the hospital. Now I could be wrong but all there is left is speculation because no one from the family will talk. I only found his name out accidentally by running into his friends on the street.
Chief of Hamilton Police, Glenn De Caire, at a community meeting, stated that when dealing with mentally ill people police are trained to defuse the situation and to get the person the help they need. He also stated the police are only allowed to use lethal force in accordance with the Use Of Force Model. It seems like these officers did not exercise and execute the training they were taught. When I called De Caire up to confront and tell him he should hold the officers accountable for their actions, his secretary informed me that he went on a couple week vacation. Did he go on vacation to avoid people that would like to talk to him about this matter? Or maybe he’s on vacation spending $44,410 in donations from Enbridge Pipelines Inc. They say it’s for equipment but you never know, wouldn’t be hard to pocket a few thousand.
The officers names have not been released by Hamilton Police or the SIU and will only be released if they are convicted of a crime. If they are not convicted we will be left in the dark until someone exposes it.
This has got to end. Not all police officers are corrupt, power hungry and have psychopathic tendencies. But you’d be a fool to believe that there is no such thing as corrupt, power hungry psychopathic cops. They exist and they should be tried for their crimes like the rest of us. Proper filtration systems need to be put into the hiring process to prevent psychopaths from being hired onto police services.
