Ca: Police can keep, share records, even after charges dropped: Court

The Ontario Court of Appeal has ruled that police are entitled to keep information on databases about charges that have been withdrawn against individuals and also share these records with other agencies.

The decision, released Thursday, overturned a lower-court ruling that concluded that Peel Regional Police should not have disclosed information about M.T. (identity withheld) to Toronto police.
