CANADIAN MOUNTIES CHARGED FOR WATCHING FEMALES HAVING SEX

KAMLOOPS, B.C. — Breach of trust charges were laid Friday against three British Columbia Mounties and one jail guard accused of watching two intoxicated female inmates having sex in a jail cell last summer.
B.C.'s criminal justice branch announced Friday that Cpl. Kenneth Peter Rick Brown, Const. Evan Neil Larry Elgee, Const. Stephen Richard James Zaharia and guard David John Tompkins are accused of watching two women having sex on a closed-circuit video at the jail in Kamloops B.C. last August without intervening.

• Both women were in custody for public intoxication, and police have said the investigation looked at whether the women were too drunk to consent to sex.
• The incident came to light when RCMP announced a code-of-conduct and criminal investigation into a complaint that seven men had watched an act of consensual sex between two women but one of the women told a local newspaper that she was so drunk she didn't remember what happened.
• The woman has filed a lawsuit in B.C. Supreme Court seeking damages. The action names the provincial and federal governments, the City of Kamloops, seven John Does and one Jane Doe.
• The woman said she was arrested for being drunk following a party at a friend's house where she had been drinking all day. There was a fight and police showed up. She was taken to the detachment, but released the next day without charges.

Five days later she said she was contacted by RCMP and told something was amiss, and five more days after that she learned she might have been exposed to HIV, she alleged.
