This video presents unedited footage and transcript of an arrest conducted by RCMP Constable Sam Redden, with support from Halifax Regional Police officers, on February 17, 2025. The material is provided for legal, oversight, and professional review. **Key Legal and Procedural Issues Documented in formal written complaint** – **Failure to Investigate:** Officers did not verify vehicle ownership or check the VIN/license plate, despite clear statements regarding multiple registered vehicles and limousine business operations. – **Contradictory and Collusive Testimony:** The footage reveals inconsistencies between RCMP and HRP officer statements regarding the sequence of restraint and alleged resistance, raising concerns about the accuracy and independence of police reporting. – **Use of Force and Injury:** Force was initiated without provocation, resulting in documented abrasions and nerve damage. – **Charter Rights Violations:** Charter Section 10 rights (reason for arrest, right to counsel) were not provided at the time of arrest. – **Unlawful Seizure and Detention of Property:** The subject’s phone was seized and held for over 10 months, despite no theft charge being laid and after the resisting arrest charge was dropped. This prolonged detention raises significant concerns under Charter Sections 8 and 9 (*R. v. Hiscoe*, *R. v. Fearon*). – **Complaint Process Integrity:** The video and the formal complaint documentation highlight failures by the complaint review process to address contradictions and procedural errors. **This video is intended for review by police oversight agencies, legal professionals, and those concerned with procedural justice and police accountability in Canada. Supporting documentation and legal filings are part of a current formal complaint process.**
