Bruce McKay peer and NH Fish & Game instructor decry him as "rogue, classic bully hiding behind his badge," Franconia still silent on Motorola manual.

By Christopher King

I filed a Motion last week because the town still can't see its way to cough up the damn Motorola Manual so I can see if Bruce was really on MUTE (see picture) while he was incommunicado for six (6) minutes, violating Civil Rights, pursuit and OC Spray policies against Liko Kenney and Caleb McCaulay. He was being a bully, as usual. Now read this email I sent in to Candace Bouchard that was a link to a guest editorial in the Concord Monitor from Ted Wilkinson:

"I lived in Bethlehem for years. I knew most members of the Franconia Police Department, including Bruce McKay and his chief, Mark Montminy. I also knew many members of the extended Kenney family (though I never met Liko). Everyone pretty much knows everybody else in the small communities in the Franconia and Easton valleys, and Officer McKay was a locally notorious abuser of the public trust, a classic bully hiding behind his badge."

Here's more from Fish & Game instructor "WFC."
15 Jan 2008 to Bouchard, Campbell, Cloutier.

"I say NO he was NOT professional or rational, this was the final volcanic eruption of a violent rogue officer that had been well documented. These formal complaints aswe now know were not acted up on by the Franconia Chief of Police or the Board of Selectmen..... It would be an insult to every other NH officer and U.S. Serviceman to see such an honor bestowed upon an officer of questionable character and service...."

And then this from RG:
06 Jan 2008 to Bouchard:

"....The town currently has legal action filed against it over the shooting incident, and we expect a major suit later this year from the parents of the young man that shot McKay. I know, that sounds unbelievable but it will be based probably on the chief's failure to supervise the officer properly, and the town's failure to supervice the police chief...."

The Jig is up, folks and the writing is on the wall.

PS: Senator Letourneau and U.S. Congressional Candidate Jennifer Horn have responded to me regarding his ill-informed email to GH. Take a look in the comments to this post.
