When police don't knock," looks at how often police in Canada are using no-knock raids. Who decides when they should be used, and who is answerable for the innocent people sometimes caught in the crosshairs of a mistake? For our second story of tonight’s episode, "Broken honour: sexual misconduct in the military," with Tom Murphy. In a program called Operation Honour, the Canadian Armed Forces pledged to stamp out sexual violence that had reached crisis levels in its ranks. Our investigation reveals how military police and justice officials fell below the standards of the civilian world, and how the man at the top, Gen. Jonathan Vance, touted the program’s success even though it secured few criminal convictions. Former insiders call for sexual assault investigations to be taken out of the hands of the military.
