Public hearing into 2015 Vancouver police beating death of Myles Gray to begin
The hearing addresses unresolved questions after a 2024 dismissal of officer misconduct, following a 2015 confrontation that left Gray with extensive injuries and a homicide verdict.
- On Monday, Jan. 19, 2026 the Office of the Police Complaint Commissioner opened a public hearing in Vancouver into the 2015 police-involved death of Myles Gray, 33-year-old.
- After a 2024 discipline authority cleared the seven Vancouver police officers, Prabhu Rajan, B.C. police complaint commissioner, cited 'meaningful uncertainty' and discrepancies, prompting the hearing.
- The coroner's 2023 inquest concluded 'homicide' and recommended reforms, citing injuries including ruptured testicles and fractures from the August 13, 2015 incident near the Vancouver-Burnaby boundary.
- Retired B.C. Supreme Court Justice Elizabeth Arnold-Bailey will adjudicate the roughly 10-week hearing, while Brian Smith said last week it’s unknown if any of the seven Vancouver police officers will testify.
- Family and protesters, including on December 11, 2024, continue pressure, as Margaret Gray hopes the hearing uncovers why accountability failed.
