This happens with every drug bust ever. It's not a one-off, it's how police operate.

Canadian police don't want body cams gee I wonder why ?

[colleendicks]

Additional training to teach them not to steal!! Priceless!

The police investigated themselves and found they did nothing wrong, imagine that .

[anuragroy]

I guess surviving in Toronto is so difficult that even the police have to steal.

If you want to break the law in Canada and avoid a criminal record . Become a cop or politician or judge .

[gdlkgscruff]

Absolutely nothing will happen to these cops. Our tax dollars were used to defend these cops, shameful !

[NaveMafe]

Canadians need more lawyers like this one, excellent work.

This has been happening for decades. It's no surprise for me

This doesn’t mean her client is innocent, it means we have two guilty parties.

I've always assumed that all police do this everytime there's a bust involving money.

She’s doing the most high’s work. She needs to be protected at all times.

Should also go for politicians that they cannot investigate themselves. Trudeau/liberals investigating himself/ themselves is unacceptable.

When money is involve there's no such thing as trustworthy person. The real question is: Do you allow temptation to overtake your reason?

[prabhusharma]

That’s a different level of pettiness. How you make over 100k in salary and stealing 6k…

Criminals on both sides of the law getting away with criminal activity 💩🚨

Canada is turning into a third world country more and more each year. You see many characteristics of third world countries here now -- like corruption, sharp spike in violent crime, etc.
