EX-RCMP GUILTY OF TRAFFICKING
HALIFAX -- Former Mountie Danny Ryan from Tantallon, N.S., has been found
guilty of trafficking about 1.4 kilograms of marijuana and breach of trust.
Ryan was about to join then-prime minister Jean Chretien's security detail
when he was arrested on the charges in 2002.
Ryan, who now lives in Quebec, did not attend court yesterday and plans to
appeal.
Prosecutor David Bright said the RCMP got onto Ryan in December 2001, after
two Halifax Regional Police officers arrested another man on outstanding
warrants.
The man said Ryan, then a constable with the Tantallon RCMP detachment, had
given him drugs for him to sale.
