N.L. police watchdog now running its own investigations and will make reports public

ST. JOHN'S, N.L. -- Newfoundland and Labrador's police oversight agency has started running its own investigations and will soon begin publishing its reports.

Michael King, the first director of the Serious Incident Response Team of Newfoundland and Labrador, said today a team of three investigators recently began conducting their own probes, adding that he will review and make final decisions on each case.

The former defence lawyer, who was appointed in September 2019, says his agency had been using investigators from the RCMP or the Royal Newfoundland Constabulary to probe cases.
