Trial of RCMP delayed

There’s been a one week delay in the trial of the RCMP over the shootings in June 2014 that killed three Moncton Mounties.

The force was charged under the Labour Code with four counts, including a lack of preparation regarding weapons and training.

The trial was supposed to start yesterday but was delayed until next Monday because of a scheduling conflict.
