This Toronto cop nearly got away with stealing credit cards and a Swiss watch from dead people, Crown says as trial ends

A Toronto cop counted on his position within the Toronto Police Service to put himself above suspicion when he committed an “unconscionable breach of the public’s trust” by stealing credit cards and a luxury watch from dead people, abusing police databases and possessing a stolen vehicle, a prosecutor said.

Const Boris Borissov’s testimony at his trial reveals that he’s “not very good at practicing the art of deception,” Crown attorney Samuel Walker said in his closing address Tuesday.
