POLICE OFFICERS GUILTY OF TRASHING APARTMENT
VANCOUVER -- Two Vancouver police officers have been found guilty of
discreditable conduct for trashing an apartment during a drug raid.
But the B.C. Police Complaints Commission says the three-day
suspensions without pay already handed out to Sgt. Sharron Bayley, a
22-year veteran, and Const. Jodyne Keller are enough of a penalty.
On March 3, 1998, six Vancouver officers used a battering ram to open
the door of Joseph Denault's apartment.
The officers then vandalized it by spraying shaving cream around the
bathroom, dumping out booze and exposing film from a camera.
They only found two small baggies of marijuana. Drug-trafficking
charges were thrown out.
