===Criminal charges===
If you say that an RCMP officer committed a crime or broke a law, the RCMP may investigate. The result of the investigation may go to the Regional Crown Counsel—the senior prosecutor for the area—to decide whether to charge the officer with a crime. If the police don’t send a report to the prosecutor, or the prosecutor decides not to charge the officer, you can still go to a Justice of the Peace and ask that the officer be charged. For more information, check script [[Charging Someone with a Criminal Offense (Script 215)|215]], called “Charging Someone with a Criminal Offense”.
