A Windsor police officer, already in the midst of one Human Rights Tribunal Hearing, is starting another.
Christine Bissonnette is a Staff Sergeant with the service currently on leave.
She claims she was passed over for the deputy chief's position early in the selection process a year ago in February, 2018.
In her opening statement to the tribunal hearing on Friday, she claims she was passed over for the position because of her earlier human rights tribunal action, her leave for PTSD and the actions of an employment firm brought in for the process.
The Toronto firm of Odgers and Berndtson was used by the Windsor Police Services Board in the selection process, and are respondents in the human rights tribunal action.
Bissonnette is planning to call several witnesses to support her claims including Police Services Board Chair Mayor Drew Dilkens and the five other candidates for the deputy chief's position.
