Huggins will make his debut after being freed on an undertaking on March 21 in court. According to the Calgary Police Service, "The charged officer is afforded the right to a fair trial, the same as any member of the public," the statement states. "As is standard protocol, his duty status will be reviewed in light of these charges." Every time a person in Alberta is hurt or killed as a result of police activity, ASIRT looks into it. It also looks into believable allegations of wrongdoing by police.
