by · Calgary Herald

A veteran southern Alberta RCMP officer faces charges for conduct while on duty.

RCMP said Thursday an investigation began in October 2023 into the on-duty conduct of Gleichen member Const. Anthony Jacobs, 40.

Jacobs, a nine-year RCMP member, has been charged with one count of perjury and one count of breach of trust as a result of that investigation.

The Gleichen RCMP member, who’s suspended with pay, has been released on an undertaking and is next scheduled to appear in court on Dec. 12 at the Siksika Nation Court of Justice.

Gleichen is located about 95 kilometres east of Calgary.
