The Plot Thickens: Loose Lips Sink Ships

Police sergeant accused of leak that sank chief
A senior Victoria police sergeant who was suspended this month is accused of leaking the letter to the media that sparked the investigation into former police chief Paul Battershill.

The inquiry into Sgt. Jim Simpson's actions is poised to open a fresh round of scrutiny of the police department, and has the potential to dredge up a mess of information that has been shrouded in secrecy since Battershill resigned from the force Aug. 13 when the Victoria police board said it had lost confidence in his leadership.

Follow the bouncing ball to the Sale of BC Rail and the Raid of Our Legislature.
