Art Dagenais
From WikiAlpha
Art Dagenais or Arthur Dagenais was a Canadian farmer, from Saskatchewan, best known for his troubled interactions with law enforcement officials, after his son, Curtis Dagenais, shot and killed two police officers, in July 2006.[1]
Dagenais was tazed during a search of his vehicle in October 2007.[2] Dagenais accused the officer, Kenneth Palen, of trying to kill him. Palen sued Dagenais for defamation. In February 2013 a court ruled in Palen's favour. Palen had sought $300,000 in damages. The court ordered Dagenais to pay $10,000, plus Palen's legal expenses. He was also prohibited from repeating allegations against Palen.
