CORNWALL (STAFF)

 

All police officers need full access to other force's records and databases, Det. Const. Steve Seguin urged the commissioner of the Cornwall Public Inquiry Friday.

 In his recommendations to commissioner Normand Glaude, Seguin used the case of convicted sex abuser Jean-Luc Leblanc to illustrate the need for better interaction between police forces.

Leblanc, a former Newington, Ont. bus driver, pleaded guilty to 13 counts of sexually abusing children in 2001.

 

"Hypothetically if the complaint to Cornwall police about Jean-Luc Leblanc in August 1998 had been reported to Ottawa police, we may never have known about it. We don't have access to their records, sir," said Seguin.

 

"I shudder when I think of what could have happened involving these young people."

 Leblanc is still behind bars.
