Senior police officer guilty of G20 misconduct to be sentenced today

TORONTO – The only senior officer convicted for his role in the mass detentions and arrests at the G20 summit in Toronto six years ago finds out his sentence today.
Supt. David (Mark) Fenton was convicted last year of exceeding his authority and discreditable conduct.
The 27-year veteran was in charge when hundreds of people were detained illegally during the tumultuous weekend summit.
The prosecution called for a year-long demotion, while the defence asked for a reprimand or the docking of vacation pay.
Those detained or arrested want him fired.
Retired justice John Hamilton, overseeing the misconduct tribunal, will make the sentencing call.
