THUNDER BAY – No further evidence will be called in the trial of a Thunder Bay Police Service officer.
Staff-Sgt. Michael Dimini is facing charges of breach of trust and obstruction in relation to an incident at a West Frederica Street apartment on Nov. 24, 2020.
Four police officers were dispatched to help keep the peace as Dimini’s then father-in-law had arranged to buy back a TV that had been stolen from his storage area.
It’s alleged Dimini entered an apartment without legal grounds and falsified his notes to imply police were in pursuit of a male with outstanding warrants.
On Friday afternoon, the Crown closed its case and the defence elected to not call any evidence.
The matter is set to return to court on July 7 to set a date for closing submissions.
None of the allegations against Dimini have been proven in court.
