Man faces daycare child-porn charges
http://www.infomedia.gc.ca/rcmp-grc/articles/unrestricted/2013/02/rcm201321242268314_37.htm
MONCTON - The RCMP have charged a man with producing child pornography at a Moncton daycare. The RCMP's integrated child exploitation unit has arrested and charged 32-year-old Jeffery Adam Amos. He appeared in Moncton provincial court Friday and was charged with two counts of making child pornography, one count of possession of child pornography and two counts of voyeurism. The charges are in connection with incidents alleged to have occurred at a residential daycare on Frampton Lane in Moncton starting in February 2012. Police haven't identified the daycare, but say Amos was the daycare owner's spouse. "We will not be releasing the address at this time because the business and the owner have not been charged with anything," said Codiac RCMP Const. Damien Theriault, adding families who have children at that daycare are already being contacted directly by RCMP. The integrated child exploitation unit started the investigation in October as the result of a complaint from the parent of a child at the daycare. As part of the investigation, police seized computers and data storage equipment. Amos has been remanded and is scheduled to return to court Monday morning. Theriault said the investigation was a joint operation involving the integrated child exploitation unit in Fredericton and Codiac RCMP exploitation investigators. "We got a complaint in October and as a result, computer equipment and storage devices were seized at that time and are being analyzed by our technical people," said Theriault. "During that analysis, they uncovered images of child pornography and following that, Jeffery Adam Amos was charged accordingly in provincial court." Theriault said the incidents that resulted in charges are all alleged to have occurred at the daycare, which is still operating. Police believe there are 10 children who attend that daycare and are in the process of contacting all the families of those children - and any children who attended in the past 12 months - to inform them of what's taken place. "We've identified two (complainants) and there may be more," said the constable. "Further analysis of the electronic equipment could allow us to identify more (complainants)."...........................

http://www.infomedia.gc.ca/rcmp-grc/articles/unrestricted/2013/02/rcm20132542128759_39.htm
Le Service régional de Codiac de la GRC a publié mardi des images tirées d'une vidéo de surveillance où on voit l'homme qui serait responsable d'un vol dans un poste d'essence du chemin Mountain, à Moncton, en janvier. Le 18 janvier, vers 23 h, un homme est entré au poste d'essence Canadian Tire du 650 chemin Mountain. Il a montré au commis une arme ressemblant à une arme de poing, qui était rentrée sous la ceinture de son jean, et il a exigé que le commis lui remette de l'argent. L'homme mesurerait environ de 5 pi 10 po à 6 pi et serait mince. Il n'était pas rasé. Il parlait anglais et portait des lunettes au moment du vol. Son visage était caché par un foulard, et le capuchon de son chandail était relevé.
No charge in voyeurism case
http://www.infomedia.gc.ca/rcmp-grc/articles/unrestricted/2013/02/rcm201323025378975_38.htm
No charges will result from an alleged case of voyeurism at a Moncton store in October. Codiac RCMP Const. Damien Theriault says investigators brought the file to the Moncton Crown for review but the Crown determined the probability of conviction was too low to justify laying a charge, so the matter is closed. On Oct. 22, police were informed that a man had possibly used a disguised camera to take pictures of a client under a dressing room door at a women's clothing store located on Trinity Drive. Police released a surveillance image and a sketch of the suspect in an attempt to identify the man.

Police boards should play more active role in policing, lawyer says
Toronto - Police boards should be more involved in policing operations, said a lawyer who was a lead counsel in an inquiry into the 2010 Toronto G20 Summit. Ryan Teschner told the Waterloo Regional Police board Wednesday that the traditional belief that board members have no say in how police operate and are "rubber stampers" is outdated. "Not only is it outdated, but it compromises the role of the board as civilian oversight of policing," the Toronto lawyer said. Following the G20 summit, retired Justice John W. Morden was commissioned by the Toronto police board to conduct an independent civilian review into the conduct of police at what Teschner called the "largest security event in Canada's history." […] While Morden's 38 recommendations are a response to the G20, his interpretation of the role of police boards and chiefs under the Police Services Act pertain to all police boards in Ontario, Teschner said. Traditionally, boards saw their roles as setting policy and budgets and left the running of the police service to the chief, he said. But Morden's interpretation of the Police Services Act is that boards have a responsibility to ask operational questions to ensure their policies are being followed and police chiefs must share that information with boards, he said. "This flies in the face of the conventional role of police service boards," Teschner said. "Operational information is a key ingredient to the work you do." However, he said boards cannot direct police chiefs on specific operations. For instance, prior to the G20, board members could have asked the Toronto police chief about his plans if there were protests at the summit. And if the chief mentioned kettling - a police tactic used for controlling large crowds during protests which became controversial at the summit - board members could have questioned it. That would have fulfilled their duty as a civilian oversight body, but it would be the chief's decision on whether or not to use that tactic, he said. […] Frances Barrick (Waterloo region Record B1)
