'Undignified and silly': RCMP conduct board accused of bias over 'Three Amigos' references

A police conduct board has decided not to recuse itself from a hearing for three British Columbia RCMP officers facing dismissal over alleged racist group chats.
Wes Dutcher-Walls, the defence lawyer, argued that the panel displayed bias, but the board stated that the burden of proving bias lies with the accuser.
The panel concluded that the officers failed to present evidence to overcome the presumption of impartiality among tribunal members.
The next hearing is scheduled for Monday regarding the officers' denial of harassment and discreditable conduct allegations.
