Two Central Saanich police officers have been charged for alleged “unlawful sexual contact” with a woman they met while on duty.
On Tuesday, prosecutors filed charges against Matthew Ball, 43, for sexual assault and breach of trust for alleged offences between Feb. 1, 2019, and Oct. 31, 2023. Ryan Johnson, 40, was charged with sexual assault for alleged offences between Feb. 6 and March 8, 2020.“Allegations like these are deeply corrosive to the public trust police officers depend on to keep their communities safe,” said VPD Deputy Chief Fiona Wilson. “To maintain trust in the criminal justice system, we must always be prepared to fully investigate allegations of misconduct and wrongdoing within our own ranks, and to recommend criminal charges when compelling evidence exists.
