Sgt. Martin Bouchard told Anastasia Boldireff, who was complaining about a man harassing her, “he sounds like a good-looking man.”

Author of the article:T’Cha Dunlevy • Montreal GazetteThe Montreal police ethics commission has ruled that a Montreal sergeant made inappropriate comments to a woman filing a police report after being sexually harassed in 2019; but it ruled in favour of another officer who the woman had complained about in the same matter.

In its decision dated April 8, the commission ruled that Sgt. Martin Bouchard twice contravened Article 5 of the police code of ethics of Quebec when Anastasia Boldireff attempted to file a complaint about a man who had harassed her. However, the commission ruled that officer Kevin Jacob did not contravene Article 5 with comments that he made to Boldireff that same evening.
