A massive B.C. drug trafficking investigation has collapsed and charges against three men have been stayed, after the revelation of serious errors by the Victoria Police Department.

The investigation, dubbed Project Juliet, resulted in the seizure of $30 million in fentanyl, weapons, and cash, and charges a year later against Brent Van Buskirk, Vu Bao Nguyen and Byran Balla.

But the case began falling apart when the Crown, and then defence lawyers, became aware that one of the Victoria police officers actively involved in the early stages of the investigation was himself under criminal investigation for alleged corrupt practices.
