The Edmonton Police Service has laid two charges against a former employee of the Edmonton Institution, a maximum security men’s prison.
In the autumn of 2017, Correctional Service Canada alerted the EPS to allegations of criminal conduct at the Edmonton Institution, and an investigation was initiated.
On Tuesday, Mar. 5, 2019, the Edmonton Police Service charged Graham Trevor Spilsbury, 50, with sexual assault and assault with a weapon. The charges are in relation to incidents that took place prior to 2017 against a female employee at the Institution.
Spilsbury was released on a Promise to Appear.
As the investigation into criminal allegations at the Edmonton Institution is not yet concluded, the EPS will not be providing further comment at this time.
