After four days of emotional speeches, impassioned denials, and surprising admissions, former police chief Claude Shaver's final day on the stand at the Cornwall Public Inquiry was a muted affair.

Lawyers cross-examine Shaver, who served with the Cornwall Police Service from 1983 to 1994, about his role in a number of historical sexual abuse investigations the force undertook during his tenure.

But there were no moments as shocking as Shaver's revelation Thursday that he had paid for his own lie detector test -the results of which were never made public - before arriving at the inquiry.

Nor did the emotional former chief come close to tears, as he appeared to be Wednesday while denying online rumours he was part of a pedophile clan that allegedly operated in the Cornwall area.
