Commissioner was exceeding his power, while also accusing the City of bias against him throughout the investigation. No such action ended up being taken at that time, though he ended up filing the request for a judicial review in July 2020 as the first of two reports was about to be published. The first of two reports by the City's Integrity Commissioner was published in July 2020 after a ten- month-long investigation of three complaints. He recommended Chiarelli's pay be suspended for ten months at a value of more than $79,000. The breakdown was three months for each of the complaints added back-to-back, which is the harshest possible punishment for the allegations. The Commissioner recommended the sanctions against Chiarelli for his "offensive and disreputable behaviour [which] has been going on for a very long time...".

On December 4, 2020 it was reported that following the City's Integrity Commissioner referring information from his investigation to the appropriate authorities, the Ontario Provincial Police were investigating Chiarelli. On September 2, 2021, Chicago-based comedian Cassidy Kulhanek posted publicly to her Twitter account alleging that Chiarelli had invited her on "a vaguely sexual trip to Europe using state funds," including various screenshots of messages Chiarelli had sent her over the course of several days. Kulhanek, who did not know of Chiarelli before receiving his messages, learned from a friend about his prior
