The judge said Cunha's eyes may have been bloodshot and glassy, but said that can be caused by crying, rather than intoxication.

Contrary to testimony by officers on scene, the judge said Cunha testified he wasn't trying to kill himself, and doesn't recall making suicidal statements.
Officer remains suspended with pay

Cunha is currently suspended with pay and will undergo a formal disciplinary hearing, according to Sgt. Rob Vermeulen, a spokesperson for the RCMP in B.C.
