About this listen
This week, Ontario’s Inspector-General announced it is launching a provincewide review of corruption among police services in the wake of the arrests of seven Toronto police officers and a retired constable. The allegations – including corruption, leaking of information to organized crime members, accepting bribes and drug trafficking – have rocked civic institutions and are proving to be a threat to public trust in policing.
Mike Hager, reporter for The Globe, details the allegations against the officers and why cases of police corruption are difficult to investigate. Later, The Globe’s justice reporter David Ebner joins the show to explain why the investigation of the accused officers may put other criminal trials in the justice system at risk.
