We chat with Retired Staff Sergeant Chris Horsley about his career path and some of the finer details of what he got involved in while serving the community of Saanich for the 29 years.
Chris was born and raised in Victoria, he credits the Police Reserve Program for creating an interest in a policing career. His experience includes spending time in School Liaison, Crime Prevention, Youth Detectives all while serving as the media relations officer in a part-time capacity for most of those years. The murder of Reena Virk was easily the most high profile and challenging case he dealt with while serving in the media role.
The majority of Chris' career was spent in the Major Crime Unit and he finished his policing career as the Detective Staff Sergeant. After his retirement in February 2022, Chris was enticed to take on a "Special Municipal Constable" position with the Oak Bay Police. In his spare time you'll find him in his shop working on some of the vintage cars he treasures!
