Winnipeg police officers won't face charges in Tina Fontaine case

Family members of Tina Fontaine are reeling from news that two Winnipeg police officers who saw and spoke with the 15-year-old girl not long before she disappeared, but let her go, will not face charges.

The Winnipeg Police Service launched an internal investigation last fall after discovering that the two officers came across Fontaine during a traffic stop on Aug. 8, 2014 — a week after she had been reported missing — but did not take her into custody.

The officers apprehended the driver of a vehicle that Fontaine was in, but let the missing teen go.
