An RCMP conduct board has ordered the immediate firing of a B.C. Mountie who took sexual advantage of a suicidal woman who’d just been released from hospital after being held under the Mental Health Act.
Const. Connor McDonald, who was posted to an unidentified B.C. community, showed up at the woman’s house and had sex with her early on the morning of Aug. 15, 2021, not long after he’d spent hours beside her hospital bed, according to a conduct board decision.
The woman’s identity is protected by a publication ban, and she is referred to by the initials NS in the decision.
