Disciplinary decision for LPS Sgt. in “Meme Gate” adjourned
LETHBRIDGE, AB – It will be another few weeks before an LPS Sergeant learns his fate.
Evidence was presented at a disciplinary hearing Wednesday morning for what has been referred to as “Meme Gate.”
In 2018, five members of Lethbridge Police Service used a private group chat to share offensive texts and memes with each other.
“The communications, which were found to be offensive and against LPS policies, targeted the LPS Executive, other officers and society in general,” reads a statement from LPS.
