Ian Mulgrew: Ex-detective accused of massive misconduct in Moazami case
The disgraced former lead investigator in the landmark Reza Moazami pimping case is alleged to have had sex with some of the teenagers involved and sold police intelligence, the B.C. Court of Appeal has been told.
Fisher’s misconduct was said to have happened after Moazami’s trial, but Arbogast said in court that there is now evidence Fisher was engaged in a wide range of misconduct before and during the trial. Moazami, who was not in court on Monday, later received an additional three years after he was convicted of attempting in 2012 to bribe a Crown witness, one of the young women.Arbogast told the court the indications of institutional knowledge of Fisher’s misconduct needed to be more fully explored to determine what was done about it — if anything.
His central role in the investigation gave him control and contact with key witnesses, and he counselled them to lie, cheat and misdirect police, Arbogast alleged at the court hearing. Frankel reminded Arbogast that none of the allegations had been proven and that a hearing of the merits of the claims was in the offing.Arbogast asked for Moazami to be released until a division of the court can consider his full appeal, which will likely take a year.
