Woman choked, stripped, assaulted but RCMP didn't investigate


http://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/manitoba/woman-choked-stripped-assaulted-but-rcmp-didn-t-investigate-1.2892050


A Portage la Prairie, Man., RCMP constable took a complaint from a woman who was choked, beaten, stripped, and pushed out of a house naked by her boyfriend, but didn’t interview any witnesses and tried to convince her not to lay charges.


Const. Allan Poapst “did nothing to assist her or bring her attacker to justice,” according to disciplinary hearing documents obtained by CBC News.

Poapst got a reprimand and was docked three days of pay, which an RCMP adjudication board states “adequately reflects society’s intolerance for the conduct.”
