Toronto Police Chief stands by promotion of officer who killed two Black men in the 1990s

Toronto’s police chief is standing by the decision to appoint an officer cleared after killing two black men and accused in court of beating a third in the 1990s, even as a city councillor is asking questions about the hiring decision.

In answers to questions from CTV News Toronto at an unrelated press conference, Chief Myron Demkiw said Supt. Rick Shank was investigated decades ago by police watchdogs.

Based on the most wanted list ya gotta admit the odds favour one outcome over others.
