A CSIS officer’s allegation that she was raped repeatedly by a superior in agency vehicles set off a harassment inquiry, but also triggered an investigation into her that concluded the alleged attacks were a “misuse” of agency vehicles by the woman.

She is the same officer whose sexual assault allegations in a story published by The Canadian Press prompted public pledges of reform last year from David Vigneault, the director of the Canadian Security Intelligence Service.

The officer said she was never told she was the subject of an investigation, or that it concluded she committed misconduct by using “service equipment” to conduct what the investigator’s report said was a “romantic relationship with a colleague.”

The woman said she believed the investigation was reprisal for her rape complaint, and she only found out about the probe this year, 10 months after its conclusion, when she made an access-to-information request for her personal information held by the service.

Am I reading this right? Officer gets raped by mentor in service vehicle multiple times. They file a complaint and an investigation is launched. A second investigation is triggered that finds that the officer getting raped while in a service vehicle counts as her using the service vehicle to conduct a romantic relationship?

Well I guess she shouldn’t have gotten raped huh. At very least if she was going to get raped it shouldn’t have been in a service vehicle.

Madness.

There are no good cops. Anyone who joins the force to try to improve is either driven out or killed.

The accused left the service the day before the meeting about not raping your underlings.

Too bad, I feel like the rapist really could have taken something from a meeting like that, maybe a pair of handcuffs and an extended vacation in Awaiting trial.

I can only speak for myself and not OP here but if she left, then probably possibly not. The career folks? Definitely. If their hiring profile is anything like that of the CIA, they have a specific preference for sociopaths/narcissists-- folks who are very good at manipulating others.

She took the job there in the first place. She probably did that job for some amount of time. And she must have fit the profile if they hired her in the first place.

My sister in-law moonlights as an EMT and firefighter when she’s not a cop. Is she a bastard then?

There’s always a chance she’s a “good apple” that just hasn’t washed out yet but otherwise the answer is probably yes.

The full saying is “a few bad apples will spoil the bunch.” Because if you toss a rotting apple into a barrel of good apples, the off-gassing from the rotting apple will quickly rot the good ones. You’ll quickly end up with an entire barrel of bad apples, due to adding one bad apple to the barrel.

Even “good” cops will quickly turn rotten, because they’ll be forced into covering for the “bad” cops. Because if they don’t cover for the bad cops, they get forced out.

Thus, all cops are bastards. Because if someone is a cop, they’re either a bad cop or covering for bad cops (and are thus, a bad cop themselves.)

All cops eventually become bastards or quit.

I.e. the good apples eventually rot too or get removed from the bushel.

Absolutely disgusting. Shame on CSIS. Our law enforcement/intelligent agencies seem as likely to commit actions that are harmful to society as they are to investigate them

Actually they’re far more likely to commit crimes than they are to stop them. There’s so many examples of them saying “we knew we just chose not to act” on horrific acts of violence, and well-document cases of them taking normal average day people (particularly muslims) and grooming them into doing acts of terrorism so they can justify the existence of their deeply fascist institution.
