From the article: "illicit relations between a female cop and a police officer"

...are female cops not police officers? Are police officers never female? I hope I'm missing some detail in terminology because this smacks of sexism on the part of the author.

No, I think it's just sloppy, probably the same incident from this quote (later in the article):

Chief Prosecutor Shawn Arthur writes, "[The videos] discussed a past incident tha has already been investigated.. regarding a dating relationship (a female detective) had with a suspect."

The article is almost unreadable due to the many grammatical errors contained within.

It's a shame too, for such an important story.
