Ontario has not yet put a four-year-old policing law overhaul into effect, which includes allowing officers to be suspended without pay more often, but the solicitor general said Monday he's directing it be done 'as soon as possible.'
Ontario has not yet put a four-year-old policing law overhaul into effect, which includes allowing officers to be suspended without pay more often, but the solicitor general said Monday he's directing it be done "as soon as possible."
A judge found that he raped a woman while she was unconscious and made a video of the assault on his phone to "teach her a lesson," the newspaper reported. OPP Commissioner Thomas Carrique said in a statement that the police service has been trying to fire the constable since his first conviction. Sentencing for the sexual assault conviction is set for later this month. The appeal of his dismissal is set to be heard in June.
The Liberal bill would have, among other changes, strengthened police oversight, while the new law passed in 2019 by the Tories narrows the scope of the Special Investigations Unit. Both laws have sought to introduce more circumstances under which a police officer could be suspended without pay.
