The admitted would-be hitman said he thought Dennis Karbovanec would seek revenge after he failed in murder attempt

A former drug dealer indebted to Jamie Bacon said Tuesday that he felt “frantic” after failing to kill Dennis Karbovanec on a dead-end Mission street more than a decade ago.

CD is a key Crown witnesses at the trial of Bacon, who is facing one count of counselling someone to commit murder in connection to the Dec. 31, 2008 shooting. On Tuesday, he provided jurors and Justice Catherine Wedge with more details about the night of the shooting on Mission’s Bench Avenue. “I wanted to use a 40-calibre Glock I had because I was comfortable with it and I trusted it,” CD testified. “Jamie disagreed and instructed me to use a 45-calibre Glock that he had. He wanted me to use that weapon because he said Dennis was wearing a vest and the 45-calibre Glock was more powerful.”

From the sports park, they drove a short distance to the end of Bench Avenue and both cars parked. Everyone but Felix got out, CD testified, adding that he went back to the car to get the Glock.
