Const. Nicole Chan feared never working at VPD again after hospital stint: sergeant
Const. Nicole Chan believed she would never return to work at the Vancouver Police Department because human resource officers went to the hospital when she was apprehended under the Mental Health Act, a police sergeant told a coroner’s inquest Monday.
He said he didn’t know how serious her situation was when he talked to her the night before she died. The notebook, which was left on her kitchen counter alongside her other personal items, included pages that read, “How can I return. No boss would want to work with me” and “I don’t want you to take me to court and hold it over my head for the next few years. I can’t do this anymore.”
Chan said she was already suffering from mental health challenges, but the sexual assault by Van Patten aggravated her condition, stalled her career and affected her ability to maintain relationships. Transit Police Chief Dave Jones, who was previously at the New Westminster Police Department, told the inquest Monday that the Crown prosecution service determined it would not pursue a sex assault charge against Van Patten.
