The former Mission drug dealer says he didn’t check out a firearm he later used to shoot Dennis Karbovanec .
The star Crown witness at the Jamie Bacon trial admitted Friday that there were some gaps in his preparations the night he set out to kill Bacon associate Dennis Karbovanec.
“I had never tried to commit a murder before. I didn’t think it through as well as I should have,” CD told jurors and B.C. Supreme Court Justice Catherine Wedge. But CD said he failed in his mission because the Glock that Bacon had provided jammed and Karbovanec escaped with minor injuries.Bacon’s lawyer Kimberly Eldred suggested in cross-examination Friday that some of CD’s evidence about the hours before the killing didn’t make sense — particularly that he didn’t check out the firearm that he said was waiting for him at a Mission home dubbed Little House.
He agreed with her that Matt Johnston, another associate Bacon allegedly wanted dead, also arrived at Little House before they headed out to meet Karbovanec. Johnston had not been apprised of the plot against Karbovaec, CD testified earlier.“I am not sure. I assumed he was because most of us wore bullet-proof vests every day,” CD said.
