Cop corroborates testimony of senior rank’s abuse after accident

Frank Thompson

A second police constable yesterday testified that Assistant Superintendent of Police (ASP) Frank Thompson did use abusive language to a junior rank who was investigating his involvement in a vehicular accident.

Thompson, of 154 Stewartville, West Coast Demerara, is on trial for allegedly using abusive language to Police Con-stable Leandre Gillis on February 22, at Broad Street, Georgetown.

Gillis testified last week that he received a threat to his life during the encounter, which had been recorded and widely shared on social media.
