A court document reveals what a criminologist calls a “striking list” of offences by a Winnipeg police officer who used his position to engage in a range of illegal activity for which he’s now expected to serve prison time.

Const. Elston Bostock leaked police information to associates involved in illicit activity, shared a photo of a dead topless woman with other officers, used his connections to get contacts out of tickets, and took goods — including whisky and cigars — in exchange for favours and more, a court heard Friday.

“It really was quite a striking list of charges against this officer,” said Frank Cormier, a criminologist and instructor in the sociology department at the University of Manitoba.

“The best way to describe it is that it’s certainly not common, but it’s not nearly as uncommon as it should be.”
