it used to be a criminal offence to wear medals / medal ribbons you weren't entitled to - don't know if that's still law (and i think there is / was an exception if you were widow / child of a deceased veteran)

Police chief dismissed for gross misconduct after wearing Falklands war medal

Nick Adderley, who was 15 at time of conflict, found to have lied with ‘arrogant temerity’ over service in navy

www.theguardian.com

 

[Elpenor]

as ever it’s the lies that are the biggest problem here.

The medals get the headlines but are kind of a red herring, it’s that he said 10 years in navy (actually 2), attended some naval college (actually didn’t attend), military negotiator in Haiti (never been there)

If you’re putting something in writing which is demonstrably false, how can you ever be trusted when a key requirement of your job is integrity?

It's how long he's been lying for that I would really like to know. Just on the Chief Constable job or since he applied to be an officer?

would have thought if he had suddenly started making that claim, it would get questioned, but if he'd lied about it when he first joined the plod, it would be less likely to be questioned. when you start lying, you've got to keep it up and keep it consistent...

DC Brett Cooley, employed on a "Drug Focus Desk" by the Metropolitan Police on their Central East Command Unit, has been found by a misconduct panel to have touched her a female colleague's breasts without her consent at The Auld Shillelagh, in Stoke Newington on on 23 May 2022, but that it was not sexually motivated 'groping'.

A second female officer alleged that DC Brett Cooley pulled her head towards his crotch, which the misconduct panel considered to be 'over-familiarity' but not misconduct. DC Brett Cooley did, however, admit asking the same officer 'Are you looking at my c**k?' after she apparently looked down towards his crotch for 6-7 seconds, which he described as a poorly worded joke:

DC Brett Cooley has been given a final written warning as the misconduct panel saw no evidence that any of the misconduct found proved had been planned.

Former Detective Sergeant Paul Whitehurst of Barony Road, Nantwich, appeared at Chester Crown Court on 24 June 2024, where he was due to stand trial accused of assault and sexual assault.

However he changed his pleas on the morning of his trial before it began, and pleaded guilty to three counts of assaulting a woman in October and December 2023; he had pleaded guilty to a fourth count of assault at an earlier hearing.

(Source: BBC)​

The charges relate to four incidents involving a woman, also from Nantwich. During one of the incidents, former Detective Sergeant Paul Whitehurst pushed the victim across a caravan following a disagreement between the pair; on another occasion he verbally abused her and threw a pint over her after she spoke to another man at a pub; in the final attack he pinned his victim to the floor following another disagreement.

Former Detective Sergeant Paul Whitehurst was remanded in custody and is set to be sentenced on 29 July 2024.

Former Detective Sergeant Paul Whitehurst was employed in the anti-corruption and professional standards department at Warwickshire Police. On 4 July 2023, the BBC published detailed and serious allegations by Charlotte Smith, 28, that she had been stalked and harassed by now former Detective Sergeant Paul Whitehurst over a two-and-a-half-year period.

Warwickshire Police faced claims that they had failed to adequately deal with him. The case was handed to the Independent Office for Police Conduct in November 2020, but he was not suspended from duty until 2022.

A Metropolitan Police Officer has been charged over alleged theft of money from a dead man.

PC Craig Carter, 51, from Harlow in Essex, is due to appear at Westminster Magistrates Court tomorrow (Friday the 28th of June) for "misconduct in a public office."

It is alleged Mr Carter “willfully and without reasonable excuse or justification misconducted yourself in a way which amounted to an abuse of the public’s trust in the office holder by stealing cash from a deceased male who has passed away in the street”.

It is said to have happened between September 7 2022 and September 14 2022 in the borough of Haringey in north London.

Mr Carter, who works for the Met’s North Area Command Unit covering the London boroughs of Enfield and Haringey, has been charged by postal requisition, meaning he has not been arrested.

The offence allegedly happened in September 2022.

Surrey: Police trainee sacked for domestic abuse rape comment - BBC News

Trainee Surrey PC Samuel Wilton admitted to gross misconduct at a misconduct hearing and has been dismissed.

Fellow officers reported PC Wilton 'joking' that "if she [a woman] was a domestic violence victim I would still rape her” on a night out in Five and Lime Bar in Guildford on January 5. Comments made by the trainee officer included: “If they were single, I would break her in half”. He also said: “If there was a Domestic Violence (DV) victim who was fit, I would rape her” then adding: “If the DV victim was fit and dead, I would still rape her”.

The training group, for which PC Wilton was part, had received training about professional behaviour and standards expected in the police force on the very same day that he made the comments.

You know, Claudio Gaetani was only 45 when he collapsed and died in the street. He was a film director and actor who had restricted growth (dwarfism), and had apparently arrived in London the day before to attend an event that showcased disabled artists from around the world.

That copper should have treated Mr Gaetani's body with care and dignity.

Gianluca, a close friend of Mr Gaetani, told The Upsetter, a crime news website: “He’s the type of person when you meet you can fall in love with, absolutely cheerful and positive, even with his physical condition of dwarfism he was never saying no to any adventure.

Hopefully the truth will come out for certain on the 16th of July and some sort of justice seen

PC Christopher Hudson, who worked for West Yorkshire Police before joining the North Yorkshire force in 2020, walked free from the dock when the jury returned its verdict a short time after retiring to deliberate. He had been suspended from his job pending the outcome of the trial.

Having already been dismissed from North Yorkshire Police in June 2023 and placed on the list of those barred from policing, former PC 823 Christopher Ryan Hudson is now due to face a 12 July 2024 misconduct hearing over allegations that he propositioned a woman colleague ("PC A") for sex between 3 February 2021 and 9 February 2021, in order to determine whether his “treatment of PC A constitutes conduct so serious as to lead to your dismissal, had you not ceased to be a member of North Yorkshire Police, and accordingly amounts to gross misconduct”.

I think it's interesting that they're going after people who have left the force and on the barred list, for alleged misdeeds prior to their leaving.
