Two SPVM cops accused of perjury
This story goes back. Summer 2012, two SPVM police were accused of picking up Alain Poirier, drunk and disorderly, driving him over to Jean-Drapeau and leaving him there at night. But they claimed to have given Poirier a ticket and let him go in town, at Berri and Viger. They stuck to this story even after the SQ had to pick Poirier up because he was walking down the middle of the bridge, but GPS evidence from their patrol car has betrayed them.
The two men have been given unpaid suspensions of 12 and 22 days. Back to work as usual after that?

Unpaid vacation. No real punishment. Here’s the problem… these are officers of the court who are sworn to tell the truth and report the truth. By lying on their report and the lies validated by GPS data, they have put in question each and every report they have ever written and each and every arrest that they have made. They aren’t trustworthy as policemen nor as officers of the court. They should be entirely unemployable as officers of the court. The only thing they are suitable for is desk duty.

No, they couldn’t be wearing a hijab, because they are men.
