If a health care worker did something like this, they would be facing discipline from their professional college and would face massive ramifications. If I, as a consulting professional, send unprofessional messages to a client and they contacted my boss, I would be out of a job instantly. 20 hours pay forfeiture is a joke in my opinion. The police need to be held to a higher standard than the general public, but seemingly face no actual discipline regardless of how egregious their behaviour is.

    I read a story the other day about several murder charges that fell apart in BC because the cops (willfully) refused to obey evidence handling laws. (I think they managed to still get conviction on lesser charges though, which is something I guess).

    The cops have such disdain for the law, it’s infuriating.
