A judge fined a suspended OPP officer $1,000 Monday for forging documents so he could go to an Elvis tribute show he produced in Gatineau, Que., while on bail for a string of criminal charges.
A year ago, Const. Maurice Morrissette asked for a bail variation so he could go to the show. He presented a prosecutor with two fakes when she asked to see an employment contract requiring him to be there.
Morrissette was previously convicted of breach of trust and obstructing justice for providing information and advice to known drug dealers.
