Regina police employee accused of improperly accessing information in databases

A Regina Police Service employee, Katrina Caza, has been accused of improperly accessing internal police databases. According to the police, Caza, who has worked at the RPS for four years, was flagged during a random audit in spring 2024 for six instances of unauthorized access between 2023 and 2025. Chief Lorilee Davies revealed that two of the accesses were related to media releases, while four were connected to information concerning someone with whom Caza had a relationship, described as "family matters."

Saskatchewan’s Attorney General, instead of recommending a criminal charge, authorized an offense under the province’s Local Authority Freedom of Information and Protection of Privacy Act (LAFOIP). Caza was charged on Monday for accessing personal information outside her job scope. Should she be convicted, she faces a maximum of a $50,000 fine, one year in prison, or both under LAFOIP.

Despite her current employment, Caza is barred from accessing police databases in her new role, pending the outcome of her court and disciplinary proceedings.

Regina police have emphasized that instances of privacy invasion will be dealt with harshly, echoing her oath of secrecy. Chief Davies acknowledged the impact such incidents have on the police service’s reputation, stating that the detection of this violation through an audit demonstrates the effectiveness of their safeguards. Approximately 150 civilian professionals have access to internal police databases. Caza's first court appearance is scheduled for October 20 at Regina provincial court.
