Behind the Red Serge is an anonymous investigative podcast that exposes how the Royal Canadian Mounted Police (RCMP) handles misconduct behind closed doors — from harassment and sexual assault to systemic failures in accountability.

Through real internal documents, conduct hearings, and survivor testimony, this series examines how power protects itself inside Canada's national police force — and what happens when those who wear the badge break the rules… and still keep it.

No names. No agendas. Just the truth — redacted, revealed.

New episodes every Tuesday. Listener discretion advised.

In this update, we examine what happened next—and ask whether some breaches of public trust can ever truly be rehabilitated.

  • Before She Testified
    Apr 14 2026

    Days before testifying in a conduct hearing tied to a sexual assault allegation, a female RCMP officer receives a series of messages from a colleague—calling her “trash” and accusing her of lying.

    The conduct is admitted. The impact is clear. But the consequences raise a bigger question about accountability, trust, and what happens when members speak up.
