Ex-RCMP Murderer Keith Gregory Wiens Denied Day Parole

Published January 11, 2022 by Christopher di Armani Filed Under: Human Depravity, RCMP Hall of Shame, Violent Criminals


I'm thrilled to report ex-RCMP Corporal Keith Gregory Wiens was denied unsupervised day parole. This is great news as this is a man who should rot in prison until the day he dies. (Maybe even the day after.) Lynn Kalmring's family can breathe a sigh of relief this time, but every time Wiens applies for parole it must be extraordinarily challenging, emotionally. In 2019, … [Read more...]

On October 15, 2006, RCMP Constable Adree Mohammed Zahara fired nine bullets from her RCMP-issued pistol into the wall of her home during a domestic dispute with her partner, Constable Chuck Simm.

Alcoholic Cop Anita Doktor Finally Hit Rock Bottom

On June 1, 2018, RCMP Corporal Anita Doktor got extremely drunk and drove her RCMP-issue Ford Escape to a Mac convenience store in High Prairie, Alberta. While trying to exit the store, Dokor fell into one of the store displays, knocking its contents across the floor. The store clerk immediately called the police to report a drunk driver. When RCMP constables arrived to … [Read more...]

RCMP Cst. Kristine Roesler Fined for Pointing her Service Pistol at Fellow Officer

RCMP Constable Kristine Roesler Points Loaded Service Pistol at Fellow RCMP Officer

RCMP Constable Kristine Roesler of the Kelowna RCMP Detachment pointed her service pistol at a fellow RCMP officer inside the detachment while she was on duty. Instead of criminal charges for pointing a firearm without lawful excuse (Section 87 of the Criminal Code), Constable Roesler was fined 15 days pay, ordered to complete counselling and transferred to another … [Read more...]

RCMP Membership Has Its Privileges

RCMP Membership Has Its Privileges

One of the more frustrating issues, as a licenced firearm owner, is watching Crown prosecutors treat police officers caught violating the Firearms Act very differently than they would treat civilians in similar circumstances. It’s frustrating because, for example, if I were to leave a loaded handgun and ammunition behind the receptionist’s desk at a physiotherapy clinic, I … [Read more...]

One Law for Me Another for Thee Police Sentencing Double-Standards

When you break the law in Canada, be it one of our many firearm laws or some other section of the Criminal Code, how you are treated by our justice system depends solely upon your legal status at the time of your offence. What's the colour of the stripe running down your pant legs? What? No stripe?  Then may God have mercy on you because Canada's justice system certainly … [Read more...]

On October 31, 2019, a 15-year-old girl was arrested by RCMP Constable David Mitchel Eardley of the Flin Flon RCMP Detachment.

Alan Ruel Stroke in RCMP Drunk Tank

If the RCMP is outstanding at anything, it’s their ability to deny all wrongdoing in the face of overwhelming evidence to the contrary. The RCMP Hall of Shame is filled with examples of bad cops being protected by RCMP supervisors, usually until video evidence arrives and forces them to abandon their coverups. Robert Dziekanski and Buddy Tavares are two high-profile examples … [Read more...]

RCMP Apology Letter to Travis Bader and Silvercore Training Systems

In early February I had the pleasure of interviewing Travis Bader, founder and owner of Silvercore Advanced Training Systems, at his offices in Ladner, BC. It's an interview I've wanted to conduct for many years so it was a real treat to finally have the opportunity to sit down and speak with him in person.

RCMP’s latest black eye? Constable Benjamen Kozlovich

The RCMP's hiring practices didn't do them any favours this week. On March 12, 2019, Langley RCMP constable Benjamen Kozlovich was arrested in Chilliwack and charged with aggravated assault and possession of a weapon for a dangerous purpose stemming from a stabbing attack in Edmonton in 2013. BC RCMP's Public Relations crew didn't do them any favours, either. Their … [Read more...]

Tonight as I searched for information on another RCMP case I stumbled upon the conclusion to the case of cocaine thief RCMP Staff Sergeant Stuart Seib. I originally wrote about Staff Sergeant Seib back in January 2012 when he claimed the coveted #9 spot on the top 25 reasons to dump the BC RCMP.  That was, of course, before the BC Government renewed the RCMP policing … [Read more...]

Depraved. There is no other word to describe the whack-job RCMP member who took his 11-year-old son into his dark Kanata basement, then chained the boy up, physically and mentally tortured the boy and even starved him because the deranged cop believed his boy would grow up to be a sexual predator. Depraved. This confinement, torture and starvation didn't go on for a … [Read more...]

RCMP Hypocrisy: Reporting Sex Offender Names Except When Sex Offender is an RCMP Member

Published October 6, 2014 by Christopher di Armani Filed Under: Police, Police Misconduct, RCMP Accountability, RCMP Hall of Shame


The RCMP has a long history of hypocrisy when it comes to dealing with sex offenders wearing Red Serge. If the sex offender is an RCMP member his name will NOT be released to the press and every possible measure is taken to protect his identity. Such is the case once more, this time in Manitoba, as a 26-year RCMP veteran faces charges of sexual assault and sexual … [Read more...]

Crown Prosecutors Drop Breach Charges Against Convicted Murderer Keith Wiens

In a move that stunned family and those following this case, as I have, Crown prosecutors dropped charges against convicted murderer Keith Wiens for breaching his bail conditions prior to his conviction for murdering Lynn Kalmring.

Is Nanaimo RCMP Sgt. Sheryl Armstrong a complete idiot or just thoroughly ignorant of the laws she supposedly enforces? I honestly don’t know what else you can say about a so-called "police officer" who has absolutely no idea of what she speaks.

Wiens attempted to claim self-defense for shooting Lynn Kalmring in the face from approximately 2 feet away, according to expert testimony.  He placed a knife in her hands after she was dead to make it look like Kalmring was the aggressor and the … [Read more...]

RCMP Constable Harley Gillman Guilty of Fraud but kept on the Force

It is very difficult to comprehend why RCMP Constable Harley Gillman is still a cop. One would think that a repeated pattern of theft and abuse of trust would be grounds to fire a corrupt cop but not so when it comes to the RCMP.  In the RCMP it simply means a lengthy paid vacation and then back to business as usual. I wrote about this thieving cop back on August 11, 2012 in … [Read more...]

It’s taken a long time but that infamous thug and former (Thank God!) RCMP Constable Geoff Mantler was finally sentenced for brutally kicking Buddy Tavares in the face.

RCMP Constable Andy Yung is a real piece of work. And by that I mean he is the type of man we really don't want patrolling our streets armed with a badge,  a gun and the power to do as he pleases. He first hit my radar a few years ago when in a drunken fit he fired his service pistol through the ceiling of his hotel room.  At the time he was one of a supposedly select group … [Read more...]

It only took the BC Coroners Service 5 years… It’s rather astounding, I must admit, but the BC Coroners Service finally reached the blatantly obvious conclusion that Robert Dziekanski’s death was a homicide.

And the Special Treatment for Spouse-Abusing RCMP members just keeps on coming…

Published March 6, 2013 by Christopher di Armani Filed Under: Police, Police Misconduct, RCMP Accountability, RCMP Hall of Shame


One of my ongoing pet peeves is the special treatment RCMP members receive at the hands of our so-called justice system. Let's say, just for clarity, a man works at a shooting club. He's in charge of the place and has access to firearms all day long. At night he goes home and beats his wife, leaving her with bruises on her neck. Twice. Nobody would bat an eye at … [Read more...]

Labrador RCMP member arrested for child luring

Remember when Public Safety Minister Vic Toews said in defense of the warrantless search provisions of Bill C-30, “You’re with us, or the child pornographers”? I find it rather ironic that, just days before Bill C-30 was officially scrapped, an RCMP member in Newfoundland was arrested and charged with child luring on the internet. A member of the RCMP has been arrested and … [Read more...]
