Codiac Regional RCMP issued a public apology after misidentifying the body of a man found in a public washroom outside Moncton city hall last week and told the wrong family their loved one was dead.
'We are committed to take every step possible to ensure this does not happen again,' Codiac Regional RCMP Supt. Benoit Jolette said in a statement Friday.
Police had not asked anyone from the family to identify the body, or taken any fingerprints or DNA, according to Price. Instead, they had simply taken a photo of the victim, which was circulated among members and one or more identified the man as Price's son, who has been homeless in the past and was known to police, she said.
Landry was released from provincial jail on the morning of Nov. 21, with no money, no winter clothes and nowhere to go. "It doesn't ring true to me that it's really sincere," she said, suggesting it was only issued because of the media attention the case has received.Michael Boudreau, a professor of criminology and criminal justice at St. Thomas University, said such public apologies from police are "relatively unusual."
