Tribal Police officer charged with voyeurism in Whistler, B.C.

WHISTLER, B.C. — Mounties in the resort town of Whistler, B.C., say a Tribal Police officer has been charged with three counts of voyeurism for allegedly filming sexual acts with women without their consent.

RCMP say the man charged is a member of the Stl’atl’imx Tribal Police Service, and the alleged offences happened when he was off duty in Vancouver and Pemberton between 2020 and 2022.

Mounties say there’s a publication ban on details of the case to protect the alleged victims’ identities.

Sergeant Jeffrey Shore with Sea to Sky RCMP says it was a “lengthy investigation,” and he thanked those who came forward for their patience.

Mounties first announced they were looking into the case in a two-sentence press release in January 2023 that said a matter had been “referred” to the Whistler detachment by the Tribal Police Service.

Sea to Sky RCMP say the man is due in North Vancouver Provincial Court next week.
