Catherine Galliford

Catherine Galliford (born 1966-1967) is a Royal Canadian Mounted Police Corporal in British Columbia, Canada.
Galliford served as spokesperson for the Missing Women's Task Force (associated with the BC Missing Women Investigation), who came to prominence in 2011 for bringing forward allegations of extensive sexual harassment and misconduct within the RCMP. Chief among her allegations is the claim that officers in the Missing Women's Task Force neglected their duties and tolerated a three-year delay in apprehending serial killer Robert Pickton. When asked to testify before the Missing Women Commission of Inquiry, Galliford stated that she would not be testifying for the RCMP "but rather, on behalf of the victims." However, one month before hearings began in 2012, the inquiry deemed Galliford "too fragile" to testify, citing alcoholism and post traumatic stress disorder.
The RCMP, which denies the accusations by Galliford, is now seeking to dismiss her from the force Her case is scheduled to go to trial in 2015. A class action lawsuit is proceeding alongside hers and Janet Merlo has credited Galliford with inspiring hundreds of female police officers to join it.
Catherine Galliford has a son with fellow RCMP officer Darren Campbell. This information was released when the son, Connor Campbell, was arrested in September 2015 along with two others for the murder of 19-year old Langley resident Nicholas Hannon.
