A number of EPS officers were sued for allegations of Charter Rights breaches and other misconducts during an on-duty incident in 2012. Two officers were also subject to a Disciplinary Hearing regarding allegations of Discreditable Conduct, Unlawful or Unnecessary Exercise of Authority and Deceit during the same incident, which involved several youth. Both officers pleaded guilty to Unlawful or Unnecessary Exercise of Authority and Neglect of Duty and received reprimands on their records and were required to undertake special training to review the Youth Criminal Justice Act.
