The former minister of justice calls an attempt to have the RCMP investigate whether he played a role in the decision to charge former RNC officer Joe Smyth with obstruction of justice after he stopped a motorcycle, laughable and beyond ridiculous.
Smyth fatally shot Don Dunphy in Mitchell’s Brook in 2015 but was never charged with any offence.
A leaked document references text communications of former minister Sherry Gambin Walsh and Acting RNC Inspector Paul Didham that were uncovered in an investigation into information being shared between the two.
Smyth has asked the RCMP to investigate.
RNC Chief Joe Boland rejects any contention that public officials exert influence over officers.
