told CTV News Toronto the findings did not come as a surprise, since Black families “very rarely” get justice in police investigations.
“The fact that the justice system has not caught up to addressing very real instances of inhumane treatment anchored in anti-Black racism in no way invalidates the experience of the child and family involved.” “Although we understand these allegations are upsetting, the thorough and consultative investigation undertaken by the Service found no evidence to support the laying of charges,” a Toronto police spokesperson said on Thursday. removed John Fisher’s principal, vice-principal, and one of its teachers, and placed them on home assignment.
“We recognize that this has been, and continues to be, a difficult time for students, staff and families – especially those directly involved who deserve a prompt resolution,” Bird said.Faridah, the child’s mother, could not comment on the police findings because she is seeking legal counsel to address the incident, according to PoBC. CTV News Toronto omitted her last name to protect her child’s identity.
When PoBC co-founder Charline Grant visited the room after the incident, she said she couldn’t stretch her arms out. “That’s how tiny it is,” she told CTV News Toronto at the time.
