SPVM Officer From Station 39 Reassigned to Administrative Duties for Reportedly Deleting Evidence

The officer is reassigned to administrative duties as prosecutors review allegations that video evidence was deleted during a domestic-violence response.

  • On Thursday, the SPVM announced an investigation into an officer accused of deleting video evidence from a domestic violence victim's smartphone, with the officer reassigned to administrative duties while the Quebec Crown reviews the case.
  • This allegation surfaced during the ongoing investigation into Station 39 in Montreal-Nord, a precinct previously embroiled in a racism scandal, and authorities confirmed the report originated from within the police force itself.
  • According to Radio-Canada, the officer recognized the alleged aggressor and deleted the video in front of his partner, who escalated concerns after supervisors initially ignored the report.
  • Mayor Soraya Martinez Ferrada stated her "confidence has been shaken," demanding Chief Fady Dagher restore public trust; Dagher is scheduled to address misconduct allegations Friday at 1 p.m.
  • A separate investigation into an officer from Station 21 suspended for alleged discriminatory acts adds to the crisis, which follows the earlier disbanding of a 16-member patrol unit in Montreal-Nord over misconduct allegations.
