Const. Nicole Chan feared she'd never work again after hospital stint: Vancouver police sergeant
Posted: Jan. 30, 2023 11:09AMJennifer Chan, front centre, the sister of late Vancouver Police Const. Nicole Chan, who died by suicide in 2019, returns to a coroner's inquest, in Burnaby, B.C., on Monday, Jan. 23, 2023. A Vancouver Police sergeant who says he was Nicole Chan's friend and mentor has told a coroner's inquest that Chan believed she would never return to work because human resource officers went to the hospital when she was apprehended under the Mental Health Act.
He said Chan was anxious about workplace rumours and angry that a fellow officer with whom she had a relationship was able to keep his job while Chan thought she would lose hers.
