## Captured post

Resolved as a public Facebook photo/post from **604 Now**. The visible caption says allegations date back nearly a decade; RCMP Commissioner Mike Duheme says Deputy Commissioner Dwayne McDonald has been removed from duties as commanding officer in B.C. while investigations are underway; allegations reportedly date from 2016 to 2018, when McDonald was in charge of Surrey RCMP; RCMP says allegations only recently came to its attention and has not disclosed further details.

## What changed from the previous NewsForBC article

No new allegation details were verified. This update adds another public media/social source and additional CBC background on McDonald’s career roles, while keeping the article’s original boundary: allegations are not findings; no link to fentanyl, organized crime, or political interference is proven by the available records.
