R ON Bilton has spent much of the
past 25 years trying to convince
others to make confessions.
Now, the veteran Winnipeg police
officer has come forward with one of
his own: He was sexually abused as a
child.
Bilton, 52, has self- published One
Piece Of A Life , a powerful book in
which he reveals years of childhood
trauma he endured and then kept hidden
from family and friends.
" Every day when I wake up, I think
I must be out of my mind ( for writing
the book). But the potential benefit
people can get from my experience is
outweighed by anything I can suffer
personally," Bilton told the Free Press .
Bilton is believed to be the first
active city cop to add author to his resum�.
He spent four years writing the
manuscript, then several months awaiting
approval from his employer, which
included getting a legal opinion, before
it recently went to print.
Bilton hopes his story inspires other
victims to confront their demons. He
has invested more than $ 13,000 of his
own money - and more than a few
tears - but said it's been worth every
penny.
" People need to know how this happens,
how a predator sets things up,"
said Bilton, who is a patrol sergeant.
His story begins at the age of 10,
when his parents opened up their Winnipeg
home to boarders. One of the
people they took in was " Don," an aspiring
businessman in his 30s.
Bilton said in reality Don was a pedophile
who preyed upon him for nearly
seven years. He writes explicitly about
the grooming process and how the
abuse progressed over time without
anyone finding out.
It was only in the mid- 1990s - several
years into his job as a police officer
- that Bilton first disclosed what
happened to him during a meeting with
Dr. Bill Davis, the police psychologist
at the time.
" I think there's a point you hit, as I
did, in your early 30s where you are at
a level of maturity that you're able to
start to process that information properly,"
said Bilton. He admits he was
nervous, especially given the stigma
associated with police officers and the
misguided belief they should never
show " weakness."
It was the start of a therapeutic
journey that led Bilton to begin to tell
loved ones what happened. With every
disclosure " it felt like a little bit of that
weight came off," he said.
Bilton writes candidly how the abuse
led to thoughts of suicide and a divorce.
Davis, now retired, wrote the forward
for Bilton's book. And in a unique
twist, Bilton has spent the past four
years serving as the wellness officer
with the Winnipeg Police Service. The
role brings him into frequent contact
with officers who have gone through a
traumatic event, such as a shooting.
" I'm exactly where I should be,"
said Bilton. His career has given him
a " unique perspective" that includes
wondering if he could have turned out
like so many of the people he's arrested
who have endured trauma.
" I often think how I could have been
on the other side," he said. " I think it
has made me more compassionate,
more understanding."
Bilton credits a few role models in his
late teens who kept him out of trouble
and steered him toward taekwondo.
He eventually became national welterweight
champion, competing in international
events for his country, including
the 1987 Pan American Games.
" That kept me sane, kept me going in
a positive direction," he said.
Bilton graduated with a degree in
psychology from the University of
Manitoba and was accepted into the
WPS in 1988 - meaning he had to take
a pass on competing for Canada in the
Seoul Olympics. He doesn't regret the
path he chose.
" Since I was about 10 I knew I wanted
to be a police officer. I don't know if it
was because of the abuse I suffered,
wanting to right the wrong, protect
other kids. I'm sure it had something to
do with it," he said.
Bilton never filed a complaint to police
about what happened to him, a
move he admits may lead to criticism
from some. He explains his rationale in
his book, including concerns about the
justice system.
" My decision is my decision," he said.
Bilton believes his abuser lives in Toronto.
He has wondered if the man, who
is in his 70s, victimized others.
Other cops are applauding Bilton for
his courage.
" He's a man who possesses the kind
of uncanny strength and steely determination
required to do what few
people burdened with his life circumstances
can do," said James Jewell, a
retired homicide investigator
