Normal evening at home for Sackville family turns to a night in jail and criminal charges after 911 call

On today’s show, we hear a story of a police interaction in Sackville gone wrong. Chelsea McKenney and Justin Baird were spending a normal night at home this summer, but a 911 call and a police visit turned to a night in jail and criminal charges for McKenney. We take a closer look at the incident and hear from a lawyer who is helping McKenney file a human rights complaint in response to her treatment.
