Toronto police inspector found guilty of misconduct after going to nephews crash – Toronto [Video]

A senior Toronto police officer has been found guilty of two counts of misconduct, after a tribunal heard she had failed to ensure a thorough investigation and created a conflict of interest when she attended a single-vehicle collision scene involving her nephew in 2022.

A decision from a Toronto police tribunal says Insp. Joyce Schertzer was charged with three counts of misconduct after she received a call from her daughter, a police constable, informing Schertzer that her nephew had been involved in a car accident on May 1, 2022.

The tribunal heard that Schertzer had dispatched an officer from her own division to go to the scene, located in another division, before going to the scene herself, where she was the first to speak to her nephew.
