Summary
On August 29, 2024, a member of the public contacted SiRT regarding surreptitiously recorded images and videos located on a computer belonging to a former police officer. The images and videos were taken while the officer was employed by the Edmundston Police Force. Following an investigation, I have determined that there are reasonable and probable grounds to believe that the former officer committed criminal offences. On March 3, 2025, the former officer was charged with 2 counts of voyeurism contrary to s. 162 of the Criminal Code, one count of making child pornography, contrary to section 163.1(2) of the Criminal Code, and one count of possessing child pornography, contrary to section 163.1(4) of the Criminal Code. The name of the former officer has been withheld to protect the identities of the victims. The former officer will appear before the Edmundston Provincial Court at 121 Rue de l’Église, Edmundston, NB on March 11, 2025 at 1:30 pm….
