Pot-smoking Mountie found dead in New Brunswick : lawyer

A New Brunswick Mountie who made national headlines for smoking medical marijuana while in uniform last year has been found dead.

Francis’s lawyer T.J. Burke confirmed in an email to The Canadian Press that Francis was found dead on Monday.

No details on the cause of death have been released.

After entering his plea last month, Francis said he hoped his case would bring attention to the issue of post-traumatic stress disorder.

Burke said outside court that the fallout from PTSD is increasingly coming before the courts and called for a provincial and federal task force that deals with the issue.
