His first charge, resulting from a 2016 incident, came in July of 2017 but was withdrawn after the case successfully went through mediation.

In April 2019, Magee was charged with two counts of assault for incidents inside the station’s detention area that took place on Sept. 26 and 27, 2018.

One of the assaults involved a 13-year-old and the other involved a 42-year-old man. Magee pleaded guilty in the assault of the boy.

He received a conditional discharge including a year’s probation. Magee was found not guilty of assault involving the man.

He was dismissed as an officer under Section 60 of The Police Act, 1990, but has the right to appeal under Section 61 of the same act within 30 days of his firing.
