Following an investigation, police have charged two correctional officers and a dentist.
Each are facing criminal charges of aggravated assault and assault with a weapon in relation to an incident that occurred when an inmate of the Bishop’s Falls Correctional Centre was brought to a Gander dental office for major dental work on October 16, 2020.
