misconduct.
Deputy Chief Constable Carl Foulkes said:- "All Police Officers and Police
Staff who are convicted of a criminal offence can expect to appear before a
misconduct hearing. Doyle's behaviour fell below the standards expected by
Merseyside Police. As a Special Constable he is subject to the same regulations
as any police constable and it is clear that he is not fit to serve. Merseyside
Police demands the highest standards of professionalism and integrity from all
its police officers and staff. It is what the public expects and deserves if
they are to have trust and confidence in us. When the behaviour and conduct of
individuals within our force fall below those standards they can expect to be
held to account." |
