4 Quebec Police Officers Facing Sex Assault Charges

Quebec's independent police watchdog, the BEI, arrested two provincial police officers on July 3, 2025, in Montcalm for alleged sexual assault.
The arrests conclude a months-long investigation ordered by Quebec's public security minister into a 2022 sexual assault allegedly committed during police duties.
Louis-Philippe Tessier and Maxime Denis, two officers with the Quebec provincial police, have each been charged with sexual assault and are currently suspended according to the terms of their collective agreement.
These arrests mark the 28th and 29th times the BEI has charged officers since 2016, while a spokesperson declined to comment on case details.
The accusations involving the four accused officers, including Tessier and Denis, have yet to be examined in a court of law, indicating that legal proceedings are still ongoing.
