A judge is expected to hand down a list of recommendations as the coroner's inquest into the death of Steve Mesic wraps up on the tenth day of testimony.
Mesic, a former steelworker, was shot and killed on June 7, 2013. He was shot down by police while he was trying to enter his own home near Lincoln Alexander Parkway and Upper Wentworth. The incident took place shorty after Mesic checked himself out of a voluntary mental health facility at St. Joseph's Healthcare Hamilton.
The SIU cleared the officers involved in the shooting of any wrongdoing, but the mandatory inquest is examining the chain of events that led up to shots being fired.
So far, the jury at the inquest has heard testimonies from both officers involved in the shooting, two of Mesic's neighbours, the lead SIU investigator, a senior psychologist from St. Joseph's Hospital and the man who trains Hamilton police officers on how to use force. The jury also visited the site of the shooting on Tuesday.
The jury will be called upon to make recommendations on how deaths like Mesic's can be prevented.
A decision was also made to allow Jennifer Chambers of the Empowerment Council to testify on Friday after a divide by lawyers.
Chambers will testify on issues relating to patient care and psychiatric status, but nothing related to use of force and de-escalation tactics.
