OTTAWA—Lawyers for Helen Grus, an Ottawa Police Service (OPS) detective accused of discreditable conduct after investigating the vaccination status of the mothers of deceased infants, have asked for her disciplinary hearing case to be dismissed, saying prosecutors had failed to prove the charges against her.
“Our position is that the tribunal should move for a dismissal of the disciplinary proceedings against Detective Helen Grus,” defence lawyer Bath-Sheba van den Berg said during a police disciplinary hearing in Kanata, Ont., on Jan. 8.
