A secretary at work has a nephew who is in his 40's. He has been a
police officer for 22 years. He works in some sort of special squad
presumably in plain clothes, and drives an unmarked police car. One
day last week he went out with other members of his team and had a
drink at lunchtime, then somebody said have another one ...
After leaving the pub he had a minor bump in the car. The police were
called and breathalysed him. The result was positive. He has been
charged.
Assuming he wasn't very far over the legal limit is it likely he will
lose his job? What about his pension ? What about the other members of
his team? (aiding & abetting?).
He certainly should lose his job, as it *should* be an absolute
requirement for a police officer that they do not have a criminal
record. And this *will* result in a criminal record unless he can find
some way to get off it.
Whether it is *actually* a requirement that a police officer have no
criminal record, I don't know.
I have no idea how being dismissed (if he is) will affect his pension
rights, but I would have thought it should make no difference.
And none of the other members of the team should be affected, although
I would hope their boss will give them a good dressing down for
allowing a colleague to wreck his career that way.
