Ron MacDonald on Glen Assoun Investigation

The Serious Incident Response Team (SIRT) was asked to investigate whether there was criminal misconduct by police during the period before the appeal of Glen Assoun's conviction. He's the Nova Scotia man who spent 17 years in prison for a murder he didn't commit. Former SIRT director Ronald J. MacDonald is heading up this investigation with his current team of The Independent Investigations Office of British Columbia (IIOBC). And of note, unlike SIRT in Nova Scotia, the IIOBC team is made up entirely of civilian members.
