London Police Chief Thai Truong apologized for significant delaying a sexual assault case.

London Police Chief Thai Truong has apologized for the delay in charges being laid against five professional hockey players in a sexual assault case from 2018. The charges were only brought in 2022 after a media report of a civil lawsuit shrouded in secrecy and non-disclosure agreements. The police service has faced criticism for the delay in the investigation, and Truong, an outsider, is better placed to address these concerns than his predecessors. He has acknowledged the failure of the police service but stated that the time for a full explanation has not yet come, as it may compromise the ongoing legal process.
