The jury has watched hours of a recorded London Police Service interview between Veltman and Det. Micah Bourdeau after his arrest on June 6, 2021 in connection with the deaths of a London Muslim family.
Defence lawyer Christopher Hicks questioned the officer about Veltman’s mental state while at police headquarters with Bourdeau.
“I didn’t have any concerns...He (Veltman) did say he was a little shaky out of shock...but I had no concerns about his state of mind when we were talking,” Bourdeau testified.
At one point Veltman told the officer that he has had bouts of depression and suicidal thoughts in the past during the COVID-19 pandemic.
Hicks questioned the officer about Veltman’s apparent rambling during the interview.
