Three Thunder Bay officers to have disciplinary hearing for alleged harassment and mobbing of fellow officer
Three Thunder Bay Police officers are being charged with misconduct under the Police Services Act after a Hamilton police investigation that substantiated allegations of harassment and mobbing a fellow officer.
The Thunder Bay Police Services Board said in a media release Wednesday it had granted an extension to the time the service had to serve notice of the charges against the officers, which hasn’t happened yet. Under the Police Services Act, a service has six months from the time they become aware of the allegations to serve a notice of hearing to officers charged. The police board can then grant an extension if it chooses.
Mr. Mercer found there was reasonable delay to serving the notice within the six-month time frame as the allegations were being investigated by a third-party workplace investigator. In February, that report substantiated the allegations that each of the officers harassed the complainant, subjected him to workplace mobbing and targeted him through rumours, public discrediting, character assassination and ostracization.
By June, 2022, the Hamilton Police Service substantiated the allegations of misconduct against the three officers, prompting the charges.
