WATERLOO REGIONAL POLICE CONDUCT & LEGAL PROBLEMS NOT AS BAD AS FIRST UNDERSTOOD



I was going to start by saying "My God, here we go again!". However it turns out that this latest problem isn't quite as brand new afterall. Back on Januray 19/16 I had posted here about neverending wrongdoing with our Waterloo Regional Police. Well it turns out last Saturday's Waterloo Region Record article was simply the details of a very sparse Record writeup last January 19. Saturday's story is titled "Waterloo officer facing criminal charges is suing police". It seems that this officer, Constable Jeremy Snyder, was acquitted of a rape charge that had allegedly occurred in August 2012. Then last month Regional Police further charged him with assault, mischief and making threats. Similarily last month Constable Snyder filed a civil suit against the Waterloo Regional Police alleging that their initial investigation into the rape allegations against him, were negligent. What the heck is going on here? I do not know whether the fresh criminal charges or the civil suit was filed first or whether it is relevant. In does sort of seem like both sides are jockeying and trying to get leverage on the other one. Whatever the case may be, someone, somewhere has to be keeping track of the legal trials and tribulations of the Waterloo Regional Police, whether civil or criminal. Why are we having what feels like neverending scandals, charges and aberrant behaviour by Waterloo's finest?
