OPP officer charged with theft and breach of trust

Postby Thomas » Sun Sep 16, 2012 5:39 am

The case against an Ontario Provincial Police officer charged with theft and breach of trust has been put over until early next month.

Kara Darnley did not appear in a Collingwood courtroom for her first appearance, Tuesday morning, but was represented by her lawyer, Theresa Simone.

Darnley, a constable with the Huronia West OPP detachment, was charged in July with obstructing justice, theft under $5,000, possession under $5,000, and three counts of criminal breach of trust.

The 27-year-old received the nickname 'Hot Cop' last spring when she appeared as a contestant on Wipe-Out Canada, a reality show that puts contestants through a series of obstacles.

She was eliminated in the second round.

Darnley is scheduled to appear in Collingwood court on Oct. 2, 2012.

‘Hot cop’ OPP officer charged with theft, obstructing justice

An OPP officer dubbed “hot cop” on a reality TV show faces criminal charges after an internal investigation.

Const. Kara Darnley, 27, was suspended without pay after being charged Thursday with three counts of criminal breach of trust, obstructing justice, theft under $5,000 and possession under $5,000. Darnley’s charges were the result of an early-morning investigation by the Ontario Provincial Police professional standards bureau and Criminal Investigation branch.

Darnley, an officer with the Huronia West detachment for the last five years, appeared on Wipeout Canada, a TV show that pits contestants against each other in an array of obstacle courses. Near the start of the episode, Darnley dances in front of the camera in a police uniform with handcuffs as commentators call her “hot cop.”

Later in the show, Darnley says, “Prepare to be disciplined cause I’m gonna take you downtown.”

Darley’s bio on the show’s website says that she hates drinking water and that her fellow officers call her a “midget” at work because of her height.

She made it to the second round of the competition.

Darnley is scheduled to appear in a Collingwood court on Sept. 11.

OPP constable from Wasaga Beach charged

WASAGA BEACH, ON — An Ontario Provincial Police officer faces several charges, including theft and breach of trust.

Kara Darnley, a constable with the Huronia West OPP detachment — which serves the central Ontario resort community of Wasaga Beach, and Clearview and Springwater townships — was charged Wednesday morning with obstructing justice, theft under $5,000, possession under $5,000, and three counts of criminal breach of trust.

She was charged following a joint investigation by the OPP's Professional Standards Bureau, and the Criminal Investigation Branch. Darnley has been suspended from duty, with pay.

Sgt. Peter Leon, the media relations officer for Central Region OPP, was unable to comment on when the incidents are alleged to have taken place, or if Darnley was on duty when the crimes were allegedly committed.

“It was a fairly lengthy investigation that led to the arrest this morning,” said Sgt. Leon.

Darnley has been with the OPP for five years and currently resides in Wasaga Beach.

The 27-year-old appeared last spring on Wipe-Out Canada, a reality show that puts contestants through a series of obstacles.

She was eliminated in the second round.

Darnley is scheduled to appear in the Collingwood court on Sept. 11, 2012.

Case against officer continues

COLLINGWOOD – The case against an Ontario Provincial Police officer charges including theft and breach of trust has been put over to another date.
