Jason Larocque recalls hearing Chad Beck say SA国际影视传媒渉eSA国际影视传媒檚 not going to mess with our family,SA国际影视传媒� after assaulting Cameron Sayine with an axe. 

Larocque, BeckSA国际影视传媒檚 cousin, was the only eyewitness to SayineSA国际影视传媒檚 killing. He testified Tuesday in the second day of BeckSA国际影视传媒檚 murder trial. Beck admitted Monday to killing Cameron Sayine on Canada Day two years ago. He plead guilty to the lesser charge of manslaughter, but the Crown rejected that plea and is proceeding with a 10-day judge alone trial on a second degree murder charge.

In the events preceding the crime, Larocque describes spending July 1, 2018 drinking with Beck and two other friends. The group began drinking at BeckSA国际影视传媒檚 house before moving to LarocqueSA国际影视传媒檚 fatherSA国际影视传媒檚 property. He thinks they started in the camper and later moved into the house where he SA国际影视传媒減assed outSA国际影视传媒� on the couch.

Under Crown prosecutor Blair McPhersonSA国际影视传媒檚 line of questioning, Larocque told the court that when he woke up he was SA国际影视传媒渟till buzzingSA国际影视传媒� from the vodka and beers he had drank earlier.

He recalls being woken by Sayine. It was the first he had seen of him that day.

He recalls waking up to see Beck SA国际影视传媒渁lmost passed outSA国际影视传媒� on the other living room couch and bleeding from his head. He, Sayine, and Beck were the only ones in the house, Larocque recalls. 

In his statement to the police in 2018, Larocque said Sayine SA国际影视传媒渁lways comes here and threatens Chad all the time.SA国际影视传媒� In trying to explain to BeckSA国际影视传媒檚 head injury, he told police that Sayine had been picking on Beck and SA国际影视传媒渕ust have beat Chad up or something.SA国际影视传媒�

While the three were in the living room, Beck left the room to go outside.

Larocque told the court he assumed Beck went to urinate since the house did not have running water. Beck had apparently been gone for only a few minutes. When he returned, he had an axe in hand. 

What happened next, Larocque said, was quick. He testified that Beck hit Sayine in the back of the head with the axe until he fell to the ground. When Larocque grabbed the axe from his hand and SA国际影视传媒済ave him a slap,SA国际影视传媒� Beck apparently mumbled about how Sayine wouldnSA国际影视传媒檛 mess with their family anymore.

Sayine, 27, had been dating LarocqueSA国际影视传媒檚 daughter and apparently had become violent with her. Like any father Larocque, 39, told the court he wanted to protect his daughter but SA国际影视传媒渢hatSA国际影视传媒檚 not the way we handle that.SA国际影视传媒� 

Beck started to drag the body out of the house. ThatSA国际影视传媒檚 when Larocque said he SA国际影视传媒渉ad to get out of there,SA国际影视传媒� and left to call his parents who then called . 

When LarocqueSA国际影视传媒檚 father James arrived on the scene, he describes seeing Beck come out of the house covered in blood and SA国际影视传媒渋n a trance.SA国际影视传媒�

James took Beck by the shoulders to SA国际影视传媒済et control of himSA国际影视传媒� and sat him on the swinging bench on his porch. He told him to stay put while he checked the house. When asked if he made any observations about BeckSA国际影视传媒檚 sobriety at the time, James said Beck didnSA国际影视传媒檛 resist and SA国际影视传媒渄idnSA国际影视传媒檛 say a word.SA国际影视传媒� 

At the start of the murder trial on Monday, the court heard testimonies from officers Cpl. Sam Munden and Cpl. Justin Helm, who responded to the call. They arrived at the Fort Resolution residence around 10:40 p.m. that night. When they arrived they said Beck was sitting on the porch. 

Munden told the court that as they approached the porch, Beck stood up from the swing, put his hands up, and got down onto the ground without direction from either officer.

SA国际影视传媒淣ormally people donSA国际影视传媒檛 surrender themselves to the police like that,SA国际影视传媒� he said.

Helm stayed with Beck while Munden investigated the residence.

Munden told the court that when he saw blood on the door he thought someone in the house might be in distress. As he walked through the house, Munden saw blood on the floor and smeared throughout the residence.

As he continued his investigation, he found SayineSA国际影视传媒檚 naked body laying in the grass. 

Among the injuries, Munden said there was a gash in SayineSA国际影视传媒檚 forehead where he could see brain tissue SA国际影视传媒� an injury Munden is familiar with from his years spent as a collision reconstructionist.

Both officers were asked about BeckSA国际影视传媒檚 motor skills during the arrest. 

Both indicated he was able to get up from the swing without trouble though neither could remember if he required assistance while walking. 

Following his death in 2018, Sayine's sister, Stephanie Giroux, told SA国际影视传媒 her brother "has always been (her) sidekick."

"I took him everywhere. I did everything with him," she said of the 27-year-old.

She said Sayine had plans of going back to school and doing "all these things he promised us and our mother before she died."

"He never got around to it," she said.

The trial continues.
