Regina police posed as girl to
Regina police officers conducted a sting operation posing as a 16-year-old-girl in order to investigate one of their own officers, a hearing has been told.
A former Regina police officer wants to know more about the operation that led to his being fired last August.
Regina police Chief Cal Johnston says Roberto Armando Siguenza, 29, was fired because of "inappropriate" communications in e-mail.
According to the chief, Siguenza sent notes to a 16-year-old girl while he was off-duty.
The girl's mother saw them and complained. Details of what was in the messages haven't been disclosed.
Police then set up an undercover operation with officers going online to pose as the girl in more e-mails. The goal was to see how far the officer would take the conversation, in what a lawyer for the police chief called "integrity testing."
During proceedings on Monday, Siguenza's lawyer said he wants to see the notes of the officers involved, but the chief's lawyer says that information can't be disclosed.
The issue will be decided by hearing officer Alma Wiebe. A ruling is expected in December or January.
After that, the hearing will resume. Dates are set for Feb. 20-22.
