There will be no criminal charges laid after a 14-month investigation into allegations of abuse at Grenville Christian College, Ontario Provincial Police announced yesterday.

The allegations of physical assault and mistreatment at the school by former students between the mid-1970s and mid-1990s were made after the private boarding school east of Brockville abruptly shut its doors in August 2007.

The Grenville County detachment of the OPP in Prescott opened an investigation into allegations against former staff of the Christian school on Sept. 10, 2007.

“It wasn’t in the interest of the public to lay any charges,” said OPP Sgt. Kristine Rae in an interview. “When you’re looking at historical allegations, you’re looking at the whole picture.”
