Mike McCormack, president of the Toronto Police Association, said his members understand they need to operate within the framework of the law.

“We’re out there doing a very difficult job, and that’s why we have the court system … It’s not necessarily that the officers did anything wrong, there could be an issue with the way they gave evidence, an issue with the way things were interpreted, there could be a whole bunch of circumstances. That’s why when the judges make comments like that, that this is looked at” by the Professional Standards unit.
