TRIGGER WARNING: This episode contains graphic content, including violence, suicide and death which may shock, offend or upset.
In this episode, Mike discusses BC's Independent Investigations Office (IIO) and their most recent annual report. Are BC police notifying the IIO of only the cases that should be reported to them? Or are too many events being reported, including those that clearly do not fall within the IIO's mandate? What does the annual report tell us and should the criteria used for IIO notification be revisited? And how do notifications to the IIO stack up to Ontario's Special Investigations Unit (SIU) reporting?
Files mentioned:
IIO Case 2020-290 (Surrey RCMP)
IIO Case 2022-018 (VicPD)
IIO Case 2023-066 (VPD)
IIO Case 2023-124 (Duncan RCMP)
