Nicholson, 41 was suspended and his badge was seized.

Rich said he believed that Nicholson had lied to judges about the information that he was obtaining from confidential informants.

Vancouver Police Chief Jim Chu said last May that the investigation at it peak involved dozens of officers, including senior members with homicide and gang experience. He added that false information allegedly provided by Nicholson to judges was used to get warrants for searches of private dwellings.

Nicholson also allegedly conspired with a confidential informant to have drugs delivered to a residence and have other police officers conduct a search warrant soon after.
