EDMONTON (CP) - About 60 friends of Stefan Conley gathered Friday at a pizza restaurant to honour the friend they knew as Wil and to try to make sense of his violent, public death.

Conley's case sparked public outrage and prompted police to re-think its emergency response after it was learned it took officers a half-hour to respond to the attack.

The noon-hour crowd at Chicago Joe's Pizza and Pub had trouble containing their emotions Friday, said Stasha Bodnar, who worked karaoke with Conley at another club.

"There's a lot of anger. In times like this people have different ways of dealing with their grief and there's a lot of anger from all of those friends."

Another friend, who would only give her name as Veronica, said she struggles to understand why none of the other passengers on the bus came to his aid.

A 19-year-old male passenger who was on the bus has said he and his fellow riders are being unfairly criticized, and that he was too frightened to jump in and try to stop the attack.

Their application was put over until Monday after the Crown prosecutor asked for time to get more information from police.

Among those in the gallery was Stefan's father, Steve, who had driven to Edmonton from his home in Apsley, Ont., along with his son, Scott.

"It was very difficult to stay in my seat," he said. "At the same time, as our system works, they are still innocent until proven guilty."

Conley, who grew up in Cookshire, Que., and moved to Edmonton five years ago from Hamilton, Ont., was a passenger on the bus when he reportedly got into an argument with a group of teens.
