Toronto Community Housing Corp. is launching a review of the “Neptune Four” case, nearly a decade after the incident — which involved the unlawful arrest of teenagers at a Lawrence Heights public housing property — led to internal turmoil at the housing agency. The agency did not give a time frame for the review, and declined to share further information. “At this time, we are not in a position to provide further details as to the form this review will take,” spokesperson Bruce Malloch wrote. The boys were charged with assaulting police, and the first boy was charged with threatening death and assault with intent to resist arrest. Police have said what went on, that was misconduct and the kids shouldn’t have been treated like that.
