The charges allegedly involved a military cadet in Edmonton between 1998 and 2007. After he was charged, Stalker was removed from command of the Edmonton-based 1st Battalion, Princess Patricia’s Canadian Light Infantry and reassigned to a staff officer job pending the outcome of the case. Lt.-Col. Mason Stalker was charged last year with offences including sexual assault and sexual exploitation. EDMONTON — Sex-crime charges against a high-ranking military officer have been dropped by the Alberta Crown. Susan Magill, a Canadian Army spokeswoman, said the military is aware that the charges have been withdrawn.
