An Ontario Superior Court judge has thrown out gun charges against a black motorist after ruling a Peel Regional Police officer engaged in racial profiling, citing “systemic” problems within the police service.
Justice Renu Mandhane issued the ruling earlier this spring, which led to the collapse of a firearms prosecution case against the black male driver of a Jeep that was pulled over and searched by a Peel police officer.
