Waterloo, Ontario – A Waterloo regional police officer charged with a variety of sex-related offences is out on bail for a second time.
Robert Richards was released Friday under a 24-hour curfew with his brother and sister-in-law acting as sureties, meaning they will ensure he complies with his bail conditions, Crown prosecutor David Foulds said.
Richards was first released on bail in January. Police arrested him last Monday after his father revoked his surety.
Richards, who has been on the regional police force for five years, faces four charges of sexual assault, four counts of sexual interference and one count of invitation to sexual touching.
He was charged Jan. 4 after police received a complaint about off-duty incidents alleged to have happened Dec. 27 and 28 in Waterloo Region. Evidence in the case is under a publication ban.
