Let me give you an example of why it’s so hard to be a ‘good apple’ in policing in #Ontario. Around 2010 I stopped the Hamilton police chief in the station basement and handed him a file. “What’s this?” I gave him the elevator pitch - Homicide detectives had been on the take since the 80’s. As well as stealing and using drugs they were also stealing from Crime-stoppers and the informant handling system. He starred directly at the file, the looked me dead in the eye and said, “You really have no concept of brotherhood, do you?” before telling me he’d ‘look into it.’ No investigation commenced, but I was told by a Deputy Chief at a subsequent meeting “Be careful what you say, because one day you might call for help and it won’t come.” Civilians will see this comment as bad, but it will turn the stomach of most good cops. This system can’t be changed, because the people responsible for changing it are the people doing wrong. It’s protects them. Three years later one of the cops I alleged against shot himself after the same allegations appeared from a different source - thestar.com/news/gta/sex-d…
