A high-ranking Toronto police officer pleaded not guilty to misconduct charges at a disciplinary hearing Monday after allowing her nephew to leave the scene of a crash in 2022.
Insp. Joyce Schertzer appeared before a tribunal in Toronto Monday and pleaded not guilty to three misconduct charges under the Police Services Act. A high-ranking Toronto police officer pleaded not guilty to misconduct charges at a disciplinary hearing Monday after allowing her nephew to leave the scene of a crash in 2022, in turn allegedly contravening the force's conflict of interest policy and removing an investigator's ability to determine if alcohol was a factor in the collision.
Schertzer was working at 11 Division that day when she got a call from her daughter — who is a constable with Toronto police — telling her Schertzer's nephew had been in a "bad accident," the tribunal heard. In the video, the truck can be seen making a left onto the busy roadway, before narrowly missing a car that was heading east. The truck then proceeds into the grassy median to the north, before slamming into a pole.The tribunal heard testimony and saw body camera footage from Const. Braden Doherty, who was the officer from Schertzer's division who was dispatched to the scene at Schertzer's request for an officer to attend.
There is also a moment in the video in which Doherty asks Schertzer if he can turn his camera off. She says yes, and he does so.
