A Leeds County OPP officer has pleaded guilty to theft, drug and firearms charges, including theft of more than $5,000 from the provincial police.
George Duke, a 20-year veteran of the force, pleaded guilty to the six charges in the Ontario Court of Justice in Brockville this week.
The charges included the theft of more than $5,000, which was the property of the OPP, and one charge of breach of trust in connection with the theft.
He also pleaded guilty to the careless storage of a .22-calibre rifle and the careless storage of ammunition of four different calibres.
Finally, Duke also pleaded guilty to two counts of drug possession: One for methamphetamine and another for oxycodone.
Justice Kimberley Moore remanded Duke over to March 29.
The charges date back to Oct. 31, 2015 when Duke was arrested as part of Project Arrowtown, an 18-month investigation into alleged criminal activity by police officers in Leeds County.
The project was led by OPP’s organized crime enforcement and professional standards bureaus, with assistance from the RCMP and Montreal police. It was launched in May 2014 and resulted in the execution of seven search warrants.
In an unrelated case, Duke pleaded guilty and was fined $500 in September to assaulting an elderly man during a routine traffic stop.
That incident, involving a 78-year-old Montreal man, occurred two months before his Project Arrowtown arrests.
