Work environment

Reporting to the Information Systems Application Specialist (ISAS), the Prosecutorial & Disclosure Coordinator (P&DC) provides specialized support for major investigations as a member of the disclosure team. They work on investigations that target the most serious crimes which are often high profile or high risk, but nevertheless very interesting.

In preparation for disclosure, the P&DC will review all operational information associated to an investigation to determine what information is exempt from disclosure, and/or be subject to delayed disclosure, by applying principles, practices, policy and legislation such as the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms, the Criminal Code, the Canada Evidence Act, the Privacy Act, rules of privilege, RCMP policy and case law.

In some instances, the P&DC may be tasked to assist the ISAS with the start-up of new investigations. This could happen at the home unit during work hours, or after hours they may be required to travel with the investigative team to a local detachment to keep up with the urgent demands of these high paced investigations. The nature of the business is such that call outs often happen with very short notice. This is a great development opportunity for those that aspire to promote to an ISAS position in the future.

This position may be subjected to highly sensitive and confidential information and some of it could be of a graphic nature that may have a strong emotional impact. Graphic material may include, but is not limited to, murder scenes and assault victim(s), autopsy photos, 911 audios and material relating to child exploitation investigations.
