TWO ABORIGINAL MOUNTIES ARE SUING The RCMP for harassment and discrimination.
Canadian Mounties tracked down computer geek, Peter Johnson, who lived with his elderly parents in Kirkby, after other internet users spotted the indecent messages and reported him.
He retired after three years in the post, but continued to display his passion for the mounties by writing a book about the history of the RCMP.
