No Charges for Cops who Targeted Alberta Politician

Real Talk Ryan Jespersen

Three Lethbridge cops are off the hook for using police databases to improperly access a politician's personal information, despite Alberta's police watchdog recommending charges. Then-Energy Minister Shannon Phillips was first targeted when on-duty officers eavesdropped on a private conversation, then posted photos and the personal commentary on Facebook in 2017. But that's just the tip of the iceberg. So why isn't the Crown charging the officers?
