Likely not, but if he's discharged as a member of the RCMP he may forfeit pensions, benefits and some other stuff like that. The RCMP has a somewhat unique compensation package and once you are a member I think you always stay a member type of thing. So even if you retire as a member of the RCMP I think you're still a member and get the medical benefits as well as a pension. Whereas if you get foreced out due to something like this I think you may lose those priveledges. In the end the salary he's paid today will likely end up being a trivial amount vs. the potential losses this member would face if he's forced out.

Unfortunately for tax payers there are a lot of people who face charges and continue to draw a salary, or are incompetant and get a substantial severance package.
