The Halton Regional Police Service says all "unfounded" sex assaults from 2016 were "properly and thoroughly investigated."


Of the 57 cases Halton police reviewed, the force says:
  • 15 did not occur or could not have occurred as reported

  • 42 were determined through thorough investigation that a criminal offence wasn't committed

They add that in the 42 cases "the required elements to meet the definition of sexual assault were not met."
