Video of Campbellton RCMP Officer Using Excessive Force Is Just Another Instance of Unchecked RCMP Misconduct
Please observe: delicate content material. This video is regarding, and has been taken down on a number of information websites (together with CBC). I’m posting it as a result of I imagine it is vital that the general public is conscious of the work the RCMP does on their behalf.
Based on the CBC, “New Brunswick RCMP have sought an impartial overview after a video of what seems to be an officer placing a person he was arresting was posted to social media.”
The CBC also reports that Chanel Roy, the president of the New Brunswick Police Affiliation, mentioned “There’s all the time a context of what came about previous to what was captured on video.”
On June 4th, in Edmundson New Brunswick, Chantel Moore was killed throughout a “wellness examine” by RCMP and faced no charges. There have been additionally no charges within the taking pictures demise of Rodney Levi. “Levi, who was from the Metepenagiag First Nation, was shot lifeless by the RCMP on the night of June 12 after police responded to a grievance a few disturbance in a house in Sunny Nook, N.B.”
If we’re speculated to belief the RCMP with our security, then we should have the ability to belief them. As a New Brunswicker, I discover this deeply disturbing.
I don’t have any solutions, I’m only a involved citizen watching in horror. Impartial investigations are solely worthwhile if there are prices on the finish. As we’ve seen in previous cases, this doesn’t occur.
