A Hamilton police officer has been found guilty of four charges under the Police Services Act in connection with his arrest of two photojournalists at the scene of a fatal accident in 2017. Hearing officer Peter Lennox, a retired Toronto police superintendent, shared his decision Thursday, saying there was "clear and convincing evidence" Const. A spokesperson for Hamilton police said the service will not be commenting as the matter remains before the hearing officer. "I think the hearing officer noticed that lack of remorse." Cohn also pointed out that while his arrest involved a single officer, he has noticed issues with access while covering other stories.
