The RCMP announced Friday on its website that two Mounties in separate B.C. detachments had been charged with criminal offences, bringing to three the number of RCMP officers charged with criminal offences this week.

Police say Cpl. Chris Williams of the Kelowna RCMP has been charged with common assault in connection to the "handling of a man he arrested" during a drug investigation on May 29, 2015.

The RCMP says Williams is on administrative leave and is scheduled to appear in court on March 22.

Const. Harinder Paul Pabla with the RCMP's Burnaby detachment is facing two charges of impaired driving following incidents that occurred while he was off duty.

Pabla has been suspended, say RCMP, and is scheduled to appear in Surrey Provincial Court on March 3 and 10.

Both officers are the subject of code of conduct investigations by the RCMP. Police have provided no further details as to the circumstances surrounding their offences.

On Thursday, the Independent Investigations Office, the civilian-led agency tasked with conducting criminal investigations into serious police incidents, announced an assault charge against Const,. Bruce Lofroth in connection with the arrest of a young person in Terrace two years ago that was caught on video.

Special counsel suspected additional obstruction effort by Trump in classified docs case
Special counsel Jack Smith appears to have suspected additional efforts by former President Donald Trump to obstruct the government's investigation of his handling of classified documents, a newly unsealed court filing revealed Tuesday. The opinion was released as an exhibit in filings responding to Trump's efforts to have the case dismissed, ahead of two hearings Wednesday related to Trump aide Walt Nauta's efforts to dismiss the related charges against him. Trump pleaded not guilty last June to 37 criminal counts related to his handling of classified materials after leaving the White House, after prosecutors said he repeatedly refused to return hundreds of documents containing classified information ranging from U.S. nuclear secrets to the nation's defense capabilities, and took steps to thwart the government's efforts to get the documents back.
