A longtime member of the Ontario Provincial Police has finally been fired after being convicted of multiple offences, including several assaults, drug charges and a sexual assault which he recorded on his phone.
Jason Redmond was sentenced to six years for the sexual assault and is awaiting sentencing for assaulting another female victim.
Sabrina Bedford, a reporter with the Brockville Recorder and Times, joins the show to discuss Redmond’s history with the OPP, what led to his downfall in law enforcement, and why there are changes coming to make it easier to fire disgraced cops.
