EDMONTON – Alberta’s police watchdog has charged a pair of RCMP officers from two northern detachments with breach of trust.
The Alberta Serious Incident Response Team, or ASIRT, says it was directed in mid-February last year to investigate two officers from the Morinville and Westlock detachments, located north of Edmonton.
Watchdog officials say there are reasonable grounds to suggest an offence had been committed, but wouldn’t comment further as the matter is before the courts.
They say Sgt. Daniel Mayowski of Westlock and Sgt. Sheldon Robb of Morinville both were charged with breach of trust.
RCMP spokesman Cpl. Troy Savinkoff says Mayowski was suspended without pay at the time and has since left the RCMP, while Robb was suspended with pay and remains suspended.
Savinkoff could not share what prompted the watchdog investigation, but said the RCMP is “fully cooperating” with the investigation.
