One of the seven Toronto Police officers charged last week in a sweeping anti-corruption investigation conspired with an organized crime figure to traffic Toronto Police uniforms, police allege in newly released court records that offer fresh details in a case that has shaken the province’s criminal justice system.
The court record laying out 17 charges against Constable Timothy Barnhardt alleges that the 19-year veteran of the Toronto force worked closely with Brian Da Costa, who police accuse of being involved in an international drug-trafficking network.
