There are some strange things though. Who gave them this info? There were no charges so is the fact that this took place even supposed to be public? How does the officer get anonymity, meanwhile he takes a run at Layton? If this is really news and legit then surely other news sources get to see the evidence and talk to the officer, right?

There is no way that this was done without political motivations. Otherwise it would've come out sometime over the past 15 years, and not when the NDP is on the verge of a historic breakthrough.
Obviously there were political motivations, but how does that necessarily point towards any one party? It could be a private citizen that is pro Liberal or pro Conservative that has connections with the police force (where apparently, this whole story is common knowledge) that leaked the story. If the Conservatives are going to leak this story themselves, you have to think they would have been smart enough to put a little more distance between them and this smear.
