Effy Zarabi pledged to become a police officer to help rid communities of criminals, bullies and wrong-doers, never giving a second thought that she'd be victimized by people who took the same oath. The Building Downtown (@TheBuildingDT) hosts Jason Kelly (@JayKellyMMA), Kirill Kasatskiy (@KrilRaps) and Amy Barton (@amesbelle) talked to Toronto police officer Const. Zarabi (@shades_dirty) about her incredible story, which started in Iran, carried through her tumultuous high school years in Canada, and seemed to finish when she fulfilled her goal of becoming a police officer. The fight of her life came after. Zarabi, who worked out of Toronto's 51 Division, endured sexual harassment and abuse, physical assault from a coworker, and racism and discrimination from her male colleagues. The battle left her suffering from PTSD and holding a hefty legal bill, yet zero personal resolution. Although the union turned its back on her, superior officers left her stranded and fellow victims were too afraid to speak up, Zarabi is still standing. Now she is swinging back. Zarabi uncovered instances of hushed behavior by the Toronto police toward civilians, including police brutality, racism, sexism, various forms of abuse, and unjust treatment of the mentally ill. She revealed how the problems are consistent throughout the criminal justice system, and not solely in the police departments. #TarnishedBadge Follow the show and subscribe below: YouTube: https://bit.ly/2xDC6VV Spotify: https://spoti.fi/3cqLRWg Itunes: https://apple.co/3aeWXw9 Google Play: https://bit.ly/34LsRiq Twitter: https://twitter.com/TheBuildingDT Facebook: https://bit.ly/34MjrUb Instagram: @thebuildingdt
