Always the same better training Better training for what don’t steal I didn’t know the police need such a training. Disgusting. Shameful.
Should also go for politicians that they cannot investigate themselves. Trudeau/liberals investigating himself/ themselves is unacceptable.
Agree. But we aren’t talking about Trudeau right now.
@J FJT told injured veterans that they are asking for more than Canada can give, then turned around and helped fund a war in another country (non NATO) on a completely different continent…
@J F who said anybody’s talking? smart mouth!
That “evidence” should get as much credibility as body language analysis.
Canadian police don’t want body cams gee I wonder why ?
Calgary police killed my cousin on an invalid no knock warrant (31 year old female, alone and naked in her bed, nothing illegal found) and body cams sure would’ve been great to understand how she ended up with all that trauma on the ground of that apartment complex 👍🏼
The same reason teachers don’t want cameras in their classrooms
Attorney Kim Schofield, great job! Thank you!
When money is involve there’s no such thing as trustworthy person. The real question is: Do you allow temptation to overtake your reason?
Additional training to teach them not to steal!! Priceless!
Lol
You don’t teach honesty!
yo mama agree??
That’s what happens when human laws are respected and not gods
….This is news?
Isn’t this supposed to be new news not old news?
How is they have 3/4 million dollar homes and 1/4 of million dollar boats ?
No way they work that much overtime 😂
This happens with every drug bust ever. It’s not a one-off, it’s how police operate.
@Rob The Slob Nah, it’s underused.
@JoMomma239 If you like that line, then you’ll like the show ‘The Wire’. That’s where dude above got that line from.
@K P Ya, you got me there. Duly noted.
No it doesn’t.
@DB COOPER Thank you officer very cool
This has been happening for decades. It’s no surprise for me
Centuries even. In the late Roman Empire, crackdown on civil unrest resulted in roman soldiers pillaging and stealing from their own civilians. It’s a human condition not unique to this era.
It happens all the time
Criminals know this
I’ve heard of cops raiding bars where drug dealers hung out, thugs told to put, drugs, money and weapons on the table and GTFO. Guess where the guns and drugs end up..back on the street. The money magically disappears.
“And in today’s special lesson I have to tell you, that you are not allowed to steal the drug money. Remember that!”
“We don’t need a independent unit to control the police in those cases, because this lesson is much more effective.”
this is how the public defenders get prosecuted. the broken system has a lot of inconsistencies that enable criminals that have been endangering children.
I have personally caught cops stealing from peoples homes. When I called in to report it , they said they can take whatever they want if they consider it not right or suspicious. I never let the police on my property. Or have any verbal contact with them anymore.
Superb job to the attorney 🇨🇦 fighting/exposing the rcmp 👊
Canadians need more lawyers like this one, excellent work.
Someone I know who used to deal drugs but put that behind him and was running a legit business was pulled over by the cops. They found 5k cash on him and pocketed it for themselves. It happens ALL THE TIME!
They do this constantly. Happened to a friend of mine years ago that got busted with weed. They took a couple of pounds of weed from him. He had to sit there in court and here a lesser about then what he got busted with and when he looked over at them they smiled at him. He could have said he ha d more weed then what was declared but that would have added more to his sentence. Sticky finger criminal cops ain’t nothing new.
This doesn’t mean her client is innocent, it means we have two guilty parties.
I would like to see the Court’s decision on the drug dealers, and the cop thieves.
No wonder Canada is one of the three amigos. The saying fits perfectly. “Tell me who your friends are and I’ll tell you who you are”
