"Appalling" allegations at BC police undercover training course prompt investigation

Warning: Details of this story may be disturbing to some viewers. Viewer discretion is advised.

A Global News investigation has uncovered disturbing allegations linked to numerous policing agencies in B.C., and the Office of the Police Complaint Commissioner has confirmed that its own probe is underway.

According to sources, about 24 police officers were attending an undercover training course, conducted by the association of B.C. municipal police chiefs, at a downtown Vancouver hotel earlier this month. In attendance were officers from the police departments in Surrey, Vancouver, Abbotsford and New Westminster, as well as the Metro Vancouver Transit Police.

Those officers were asked to role-play and show how they might convince those on the wrong side of the law that they weren’t police officers. In one instance, this allegedly involved defecation on another person, food used in a sexual manner, and other even more perverse acts.

Sources tell Global News that the course immediately stopped, and some officers found the role-playing so disturbing that they reported it to their supervisors.
