The father of the men accused in the brutal beating of a Whitby teen now facing allegations of his own.

According to the Toronto Star, John Theriault has been removed from his job at the Professional Standards Unit.

He’s accused of interfering with the investigation into Constable Michael Theriault and Chris Theriault (pictured above behind their lawyer).

His sons are charged in the December 2016 beating of Dafonte Miller. The preliminary inquiry begins in an Oshawa court in February of next year.
