A new report is saying that Superintendent Quinn McCartney testified today and his conclusion differs from the findings of the two pathologists. Basically McCartney stated that the dangerous amount of methadone was the main factor behind his death.
"Even if there were no other drugs present in (Smith's) bloodstream, the methadone level would be enough to set off alarms," said McCartney, who added that the young man had bloody froth in his lungs that he interpreted as a "clear sign of overdose".
Police Inspector Frederick Taylor also testified today that former Immigration Minister Shane Gibson was in the hospital room when he and other officers arrived at the facility.
