A case that places the autonomy of police officers at risk.

DR. BYRAM W. BRIDLE MAY 27, 2024 READ

Detective Helen Grus is a member of the Ottawa Police force. She is facing a disciplinary tribunal because she initiated an investigation into the cause of death of nine Ottawa-area babies. Part of this included inquiring about COVID-19 vaccination status of the mothers. This is a very important case because it puts the autonomy of police officers at risk. Police officers have a right to autonomously initiate investigations when they perceive potential harm being done. This is to avoid outside influences, especially politically motivated ones, from dictating what police officers are allowed to investigate. Detective Grus is taking the stand to testify in her own case, beginning today. It can only be viewed in-person.
