NORTHUMBERLAND COUNTY — A Northumberland OPP officer who was honoured by the Governor General of Canada is facing charge a charge of sexual assault and sexual interference in relation to an investigation by the Provinces Special Investigation Unit.
Northumberland OPP Const. James Orser is facing two counts of sexual assault and one count of sexual interference.
Orser and another officer were awarded the Medal of Bravery from the Governor General of Canada Michaelle Jean in February, 2010 pertaining to a fatal fire on October 27, 2006 in Campbellford.
Twice, another officer entered into the blazing apartment in an attempt to reach the victims, but both times, he was forced out due to the extreme heat and smoke. The officer again re-entered, this time with Orser, but the officers were unsuccessful in reaching any of the children. Firefighters arrived and pulled the victims from the blaze. Two of the young victims died.
Director of the Special Investigations Unit, Ian Scott, said there are “reasonable grounds to believe” that Orser committed crimes in relation to a July 2010 incident involving two females –– one who was 14 at the time of the incident, and one who was 18.
The SIU was contacted by the OPP regarding a complaint against the officer and an investigation was launched.
The officer will appear in Cobourg court on July 25, 2012.
As this matter is now before the courts, the SIU will make no further comment pertaining to this investigation.
Northumberland OPP Inspector Doug Borton said he could not specifically comment on the investigation, but said, "public trust and confidence is the cornerstone of the OPP and as an organization, the OPP hold their members accountable for their actions both on or off duty.
"Although I cannot speak specifically to the matter that resulted in the arrest of James Orser by the province's Special Investigations Unit, I can confirm that he has been suspended from duty."
The SIU is an arm’s length agency that investigates reports involving police where there has been death, serious injury or allegations of sexual assault.

Northumberland OPP officer charged with sexual assault makes second court appearance
NORTHUMBERLAND -- A Northumberland OPP officer charged with sexual assault needs more time to retain a lawyer.
On Aug. 8 at Cobourg's provincial court on William Street, OPP Constable James Orser stood charged with two counts of sexual assault and one count of sexual interference.
Constable James Orser told Justice Robert Graydon he had yet to retain counsel, but was seeking a lawyer through the OPP Association.
"I've had no disclosure to provide counsel," Const. Orser told Justice Graydon, when asked why it's taken this long to retain a lawyer.
Before proceedings began, crown attorney Ian Bulmer, provided Const. Orser with his disclosure.
Justice Graydon was going to allow until Sept. 5 for Const. Orser to seek counsel, who had his first appearance in court on July 25.
However, Justice Graydon changed his mind and set Aug. 29 as the next date where, "either you or a lawyer must be here on your behalf.
"I want to make sure a lawyer is on record as soon as possible," said Justice Graydon.
The Province's Special Investigations Unit (SIU) announced the sexual assault charges against Const. Orser June 14. He is accused of inappropriate conduct involving two teenaged girls, ages 14 and 18, during an incident in July 2010.

Woman tells court about sexual assault at home of Northumberland cop
OSHAWA -- A witness has testified she and a teenaged friend were sexually assaulted after a night of drinking at a Northumberland OPP officer’s home.
“He came onto me very strongly,” the woman, now 22, testified Tuesday. “He was pulling at my clothes.”
Constable James Orser has pleaded not guilty to charges relating to an incident the Crown alleges occurred in July of 2010 in Campbellford.
Two young women, who were aged 14 and 18 in 2010, have testified they were sexually assaulted by the officer.
The trial is being heard by Superior Court Justice Ted Minden in Oshawa. A publication ban prohibits reporting information that might identify either complainant.
The woman who testified Tuesday said that she and her friend were hanging out in Campbellford on a summer night when she got a call from Const. Orser, with whom she had exchanged phone numbers after he conducted a domestic assault investigation.
She said the two girls went to the cop’s house, where he served them drinks and invited them into his hot tub.
At one point the younger girl was in the officer’s lap as they sat in the tub, the woman testified. She said that they later resumed drinking inside the house, and wound up in a bedroom.
The witness said she was sitting on the bed talking to the younger girl when she was assaulted by Const. Orser.
“He’s coming onto me strong, grabbing my clothes, trying to take off my pants. He did take off my pants,” she said. “I was very intoxicated. He forced himself on top of me.”
The woman said that she managed to break away and leave the room, where she put her pants back on. “When I came back in he was on top of (the other girl) having sex with her,” she said.
She said she shouted at Const. Orser to stop and demanded he drive the girls to a friend’s residence outside of town. The two girls parted the next day and didn’t have contact thereafter, court heard.
Both young women have testified they were reluctant to disclose the incident. The witness said Tuesday she at first refused to talk to investigators, but eventually told her story.
Const. Orser was charged in 2012 with sexual assault and sexual interference following an investigation by the Special Investigations Unit, an independent agency that investigates allegations of injury or sexual assault involving police.
The trial continues.

Northumberland OPP officer James Orser found not guilty of sexual assault
OSHAWA -- A judge has acquitted a Northumberland OPP officer of sex crimes against two teenaged girls who claimed they were assaulted at his Campbellford home in the summer of 2010.
The stories told by the young women were riddled with inconsistencies too numerous to ignore, Superior Court Justice Ted Minden said in pronouncing Constable James Orser not guilty Friday, April 10.
“There were many discrepancies on matters large and small,” the judge said. “Their versions were consistently inconsistent. They did not come close to meshing with each other.”
Const. Orser, who was charged with two counts of sexual assault and one count of sexual interference after an investigation by the Province’s Special Investigations Unit, thanked the judge and shook hands with defence lawyer Harry Black.
But outside court he declined comment.
“Not today,” he said. “I need time.”
During a trial that began March 30 in Oshawa, Justice Minden heard testimony from witnesses including the two women and Const. Orser.
The women, aged 14 and 18 at the time they claimed to have been assaulted, said they went to Const. Orser’s home on a night in July 2010.
They testified they were given alcohol and invited into a hot tub, eventually winding up in a bedroom where they were both sexually assaulted.
Const. Orser denied either girl was at his house. He claimed he hadn’t met the 14 year old prior to the night in question, but was familiar with the 18 year old because he’d helped her deal with an abusive boyfriend.
The women offered differing and shifting accounts of the incident, including key elements such as when they arrived at Const. Orser’s house and the way in which the alleged assaults occurred.
The older woman, now 22, also acknowledged that for two years she told investigators from the OPP and SIU she’d had no sexual contact with Const. Orser.
Her story changed in 2012 when she was in custody and facing penitentiary time for a serious assault, court heard. She denied tailoring her story to broker a deal with authorities.
“I have nothing but her word on that,” Justice Minden said in analyzing Mr. Black’s suggestion that the woman had changed her story to benefit herself. “This is a possibility that can’t be ignored,” he added.
Prosecutor Peter Scrutton had urged the judge to accept the testimony of the two women, reasoning that the inconsistencies in their accounts actually proved they hadn’t colluded to frame the cop.
He said the Crown’s case was bolstered by a snippet of video, caught when one of the girls inadvertently triggered the video function on her cellphone, that shows blurred and shaky images from inside Const. Orser’s house.
In assessing the video Justice Minden noted that Const. Orser had testified he generally left his house unlocked. And while the video clip captures two girls’ voices, there’s no evidence Const. Orser was there when it was taken, he said.
“There is no evidence as to when it was created,” Justice Minden said of the video.

Sex video cop loses bid to keep OPP job
A Campbellford OPP officer lost his job for recording sex videos of his ex-girlfriend and showing the footage to fellow cops while on duty during the G8 summit in 2010, the Sun has learned.
Const. James Orser, who pleaded guilty in 2016 to a Police Services Act charge of discreditable conduct, appealed the penalty of dismissal but struck out as the Ontario Civilian Police Commission upheld his firing on Friday.
OPP Superintendent Greg Walton ordered the officer to quit or be fired within seven days, saying: “The seriousness of PC Orser’s misconduct is so significant and egregious I find it provides grounds for dismissal.”
The officer and AB, whose identity is protected, were lovers from February 2009 to June 2010 and she met several members of Orser’s Campbellford detachment, the decision stated.
Once while engaged in sexual conduct, Orser started recording on his cellphone. When she noticed, she covered her face, told him to stop recording and delete the footage.
Orser lied and told her he had deleted the file, the decision stated.
After the couple split up, Orser showed the 15-second explicit video to fellow officers while on duty, riding the bus to the G8 summit in Huntsville and later off duty.
“The misconduct is, in fact, sufficiently serious and egregious to justify dismissal,” Chris Diana, the OPP counsel, stated at the appeal before commission.
Orser also had another discreditable conduct conviction — which cost him 80 hours pay — for writing an attractive 20-year-old female motorist a ticket for “looking too good to drive a motor vehicle contrary to section 69 of Highway Traffic Act” in April 2006.
The woman repeatedly refused Orser’s bid for dates, “citing the large age gap between them and eventually she stopped responding to his text messages,” stated Diana.
“It was not a real ticket and (she knew it) was a joke, she was offended by it and felt Const. Orser crossed the line,” added Diana.
Orser blamed his misconduct on PTSD, which Walton rejected as a cause of his offences.
In April 2015, Orser was acquitted of sexually assaulting two teenaged girls in his Campbellford home in July 2010 as Justice Ted Minden found there were too many inconsistencies in the alleged victims’ accounts.
The complainants, 14 and 18 at the time, alleged Orser welcomed them to his home where they were plied with alcohol and invited into his hot tub before ending up in a bedroom where they were both sexually assaulted.
Orser denied either girl was at his house, although one girl had cellphone video from inside his home. He claimed he hadn’t met the 14-year-old before that night, but was familiar with the 18-year-old because he’d helped her deal with an abusive boyfriend.
Orser earned a Medal of Bravery for attempting to rescue three children from a blazing building in Campbellford on Oct. 27, 2006.
Neither he nor partner Bruce Thompson were able reach the children, two of whom died.

Cop in sex video scandal to finally lose pay after six-year suspension?
A Campbellford OPP officer who lost his job for taking a cellphone sex video of his girlfriend without her consent and playing it for other officers could miss out on his first paycheque after being suspended for six years.
Starting Friday, Const. James Orser — who has been suspended with pay since June 2012 — could start losing salary a week after the Ontario Civilian Police Commission upheld his firing last Friday.
OPP first-class officers start at $98,000 a year.
Last Friday, Orser lost his appeal and was ordered to either quit or be fired in seven days. Orser could possibly restart his suspension with pay status by appealing last week’s decision.
His veteran lawyer Harry Black, who was unavailable for comment, has 30 days to file an appeal.
Orser was first suspended with pay when he was charged with sexually assaulting two teenaged girls at his Campbellford home in July 2010.
In April 2015, Orser was acquitted of sexually assaulting the girls, then 18 and 14, as Justice Ted Minden found there were too many inconsistencies in the alleged victims’ accounts.
Orser started as OPP Constable in January 2005.
Orser remained suspended with pay when he pleaded guilty in 2016 to Police Act charge of discreditable conduct in connection with the sex video.
At that time, OPP Supt. Greg Walton ordered Orser to quit or be fired within seven days because “the seriousness of PC Orser’s misconduct . . . provides grounds for dismissal.”
OPP counsel Chris Diana demanded Orser lose his pay immediately even though the officer appealed the penalty.
Walton refused, enabling Orser to continue receiving a cheque until last Friday’s decision. Walton stated Orser’s PTSD, brought on by his police work, “is now a significant part of his life moving forward.”
He earned a Medal of Bravery for attempting to rescue three children from a blazing building in Campbellford on Oct. 27, 2006.
Orser and his now former girlfriend were lovers from February 2009 to June 2010 and she met several members of Orser’s Campbellford detachment, said Walton.
Orser recorded him and his lover having sex on his cellphone and lied to her that he deleted it, the decision stated.
Later, Orser showed the 15-second explicit video to fellow cops while on duty, riding the bus to the G8 summit in Huntsville and later off duty in June 2010.
“Orser videotaped (the woman) while she was in a state of complete vulnerability, engaged in sexual intercourse. It is the violation of trust that makes this misconduct so eggregious,” stated Walton.
Orser also had another discreditable conduct conviction — which cost him 80 hours pay — for writing an attractive 20-year-old female motorist a ticket for “looking too good to drive a motor vehicle contrary to Section 69 of Highway Traffic Act” in April 2006.

OPP officer who showed sex tape to colleagues unfit to wear uniform
OPP officer James Orser was ordered to be dismissed over a sex video depicting his then girlfriend that Orser showed to colleagues. It was not the first instance in which Orser tarnished the reputation of the force, Rosie DiManno writes.
Let me state this bluntly: OPP officer James Orser is a bastard.
A creep.
A slimy, untrustworthy jerk with zero respect for women and for the policing profession, unfit to wear the uniform. As, indeed, a tribunal found two years ago, when ordering Orser to quit or be fired within seven days after the sentencing hearing which followed his guilty plea to discreditable conduct in connection with a sex video.
That video, as described in an agreed statement of facts, was shot some time between February 2009 and June 2010 when Orser was a constable in Campbellford. It depicts an intimate act between Orser and his then girlfriend, a woman (known only as A.B. in documents, her identity protected by a publication ban) who, through her own job, had regular contact with the OPP, including members from the Campbellford detachment.
Orser had turned on his phone while the couple were having sexual intercourse, without A.B.’s consent. When she noticed what he was doing, she immediately covered her face and told Orser to switch the damn thing off. Orser told her he had, but he hadn’t. A.B. asked him to delete the recording. He said he had, but he hadn’t.
In June of 2010, Orser was assigned to assist with policing the G8 summit in Huntsville. On the bus to Huntsville, he showed the 15-second video clip to another officer. He showed it again to a group of summit officers whilst socializing in off-hours.
Here’s how one of them recalled it to the tribunal: “Orser said, look at this, and pulled his phone out and had a video of him having sex with his girlfriend at the time … I recognized her … The camera is focused on her laying there, you could just see it from like a bit here and then up, from about thigh level, like from the thigh, laying on her back to the top of her … pointing it down so you could see part of his genitalia and her genitalia area … It was like a second before I turned away, a couple of seconds, holy cow, it was like, what the hell are you showing? I think he just whipped it out.”
Why would a man do such a thing? The answer — whether the couple had broken up, whether Orser was being boastful or simply malicious — is not to be found in the hundreds of pages which now constitute the judicial record.
But one of the tribunal exhibits was a written victim impact statement from A.B., explaining why she brought the matter to professional standards upon discovering Orser’s betrayal.
“He exploited me and not just to individuals I don’t know but my peers and other professionals that I worked with and saw often. This isn’t just an embarrassing experience that you get over. I feel shame, distrust and fear, among other emotions. It makes me stick to my stomach when I recollect the events. There are no words to explain how it feels when someone tells you that they have seen a video of you naked. He took something intimate and personal that is supposed to mean something in a relationship and made it into a complete joke; a bragging tool …
“This is not something that I will get over. This is something that will haunt me forever.”
As the hearing officer noted: “Only he knows why he made the recording, why he kept it and why he showed it on two occasions … If just once over that time frame, PC Orser was guided by what could be considered an average conscience, reasonably integrity, ethics or morality, he simply would have deleted the recording. It causes me to question if these characteristics are non-existent.
“This conduct goes well beyond a simple one-off mistake or error in judgment; rather it is consistent with a flaw in PC Orser’s character.”
“Reprehensible” was only one from a number of damning descriptors. It rendered Orser “useless” as a law enforcement officer, his potential testimony in court cases related to his job “untrustworthy,” his continuing presence on the force bringing policing into disrepute with the public and with his colleagues. How could he possibly not have grasped the repercussions?
But it was not the first instance where Orser had tarnished the shield with inappropriate conduct involving women he fancied.
In another incident, from 2008, Orser hounded the 20-year-old daughter of friends, a woman whose younger sister had babysat Orser’s daughter, repeatedly asking her to go on a date with him. She wasn’t interested — too much of an age gap, for one thing. One day, when “M.D.” pulled into a Campbellford bank parking lot, driving her father’s truck, Orser drove up alongside, blocking her vehicle. Asked if she was supposed to be driving the truck. M.D. joked that maybe she’d forgotten her driver’s licence. To which Orser replied: “Oh, well that’s a ticket right there.” And proceeded to write out a note: “Looking to (sic) good to drive a motor vehicle, contrary to Section ‘69’ of the Highway Traffic Act.”
Ha-ha. But … creepy.
When that resulted in a Police Act charge of discreditable conduct, Orser pleaded guilty (in 2015) and forfeited 80 hours’ pay.
From that hearing officer: “(I) find the exhibited behaviour of PC Orser goes beyond that of an ill-intended joke. It was unwanted, suggestive and repulsive. Others would have good reason to deem PC Orser’s behaviour as harassing in nature and it goes far below the expected professionalism of a police officer. I find the nature and seriousness of PC Orser’s misconduct troubling and an aggravating factor.”
A troubled man? Possibly. A deep delve into the second hearing documents show a sharp disagreement between psychiatric experts over whether Orser, during those years, suffered from post-traumatic stress disorder, brought on by the trauma of several on-the-job events: a high-risk takedown, a suicide call, a fatal vehicle collision and, most crucially, a house fire in which two children died. Orser and another officer were awarded a Medal of Bravery for twice trying to enter the blazing apartment in unsuccessful attempts to rescue the victims.
As well, in 2015, Orser was acquitted by a Superior Court judge on sex crime charges — two teenage girls who claimed he’d assaulted them at his home.
At the second tribunal hearing, Orser’s treating psychiatrist insisted the PTSD had a “causal” effect on the officer’s behaviour, leading to symptoms of aggression and hyper-arousal, which would account for him making and showing the sex video clip. “PTSD is written all over this,” she testified. But a forensic psychologist who reviewed the case for the tribunal testified that no causal link had been established; he was not satisfied that showing the cellphone video was specifically linked to Orser’s PTSD symptoms.
In any event, though the hearing adjudicator was dubious about the treating psychiatrist’s “tunnel vision,” he accepted that Orser has PTSD. He was “less than persuaded,” however, that PTSD had possibly played a role in Orser’s behaviour. That’s why he ordered the dismissal.
A week ago Friday, the Ontario Civilian Police Commission upheld Orser’s firing.
He has 30 days to file an appeal. Which would reinstate his pay in the interim.
Orser has been suspended with pay since 2012.
The creep.
