Seven Vancouver police officers will soon face a public disciplinary hearing centred on their parts in the beating death of a 33-year-old man during a mental health crisis. Myles Gray died outside an East Vancouver home in 2015 after police were called to reports of a man behaving erratically. The Independent Investigations Office found three of the seven officers should face charges of manslaughter, aggravated assault and assault causing bodily harm. However, charges were never laid even though a Coroners Inquest also found the death was a homicide. The new Police Complaints Commissioner has now ordered a public hearing so a retired judge can reassess the case.
