Chief Morley Googoo has been charged with assault after an altercation at a hotel in Sydney last month.

Googoo, who represents Nova Scotia and Newfoundland to the Assembly of First Nations, was charged late Friday with assault and disturbing the peace at the Hampton Inn in Sydney on June 17.

He was released from police custody on a promise to appear in court July 31.

SIRT has responded to a news conference held by the lawyer for Clayton Miller’s family.

Ray Wagner says there’s new evidence in the disappearance and death of the teen after a drinking party in New Waterford…that a search was conducted of a stream the day before Miller’s body was found and his body wasn’t there.

SIRT, which cleared the police department of any wrongdoing in the death after an investigation in 2014 and 2015, says it was told by the fire department in New Waterford that no such search had been conducted. The police watchdog says it will follow up on the information provided by Wagner yesterday and determine what impact it has on conclusions of the previous investigation.
