You really dont like the 5-0 do you bruh.
If he's prepared to do something like mentioned to colleagues, someones he could well be on duty with and have to trust his safety with, what's he doing to some 15 year old kid wearing a hoody one evening down some back street (this is not presented along a possibility of sexual offence I hasten to add).
It speaks for a bigger problem within the force as a whole that zero/improper vetting is rife and so are the offenders hiding in the rank and file.

edit:- good compassionate honest coppers I respect and support, the others in it for other reasons I certainly am not.

I mean those 2 things arent even similar mate.

Not even in the same ballpark.

I would add I feel you expect a different kind of person to be a Police officer, but at the end of the day they are just human, with all the failings that humans have.

I'll alter the scenario then, he's part of the whatsapp group with the racism and the 'would rape' such and such an officer, and sharing pictures of murdered citizens and and and...

bad character, bad behaviour, backed to the hilt by his higher ups and the lordships that judge down the big house.

Maybe its just me, I used to be shocked, but now I expect Humans to act badly.
 
Todays let down...

There is a bad apple in every barrel.. This guy was only 23 years old, and hired two years ago. He was hired with modern, liberal policing recruitment methods, so we can't blame 'old school', 'institutionalised' etc reasons...

The crimes he has been charged with, suggest to me, that he is not evil because he is a police officer, he is an evil person who happens to be a police officer.

So, how do you stop such people being hired by the police? Or any other employer? How do you identify future rapists during the recruitment process?

No idea at this time, but as a police can the time served be double that for the ordinary Joe? 6 counts, 10 years a piece, see you in your 80's.

Crimes committed involving abuse from a position of power are punished more severely. Not just police, but teachers also, as another example.

I'm not sure if this case is an abuse of power, though? It seems to be offences committed in his private life. And you don't have to sell me the idea of long sentences for horrific crimes!

It's more the position of trust, and swearing to uphold the law, leading by example, enforcing good behaviour on others begins by conducting ones self with the very same said. It's the malevolent hypocrisy that concerns me, as well as the sheer scale and regularity.
 
Police into the firing line again, this time the tories and those that pander to them want every shoplifting occurrence investigated and prosecuted where possible.
There's a backlog in courts, no spaces in jails, a crumbling number of police, for instance - rape statistics are terrifying, we are beyond the tipping point and these chancers are talking up shoplifting.
It's not often I'm on the side of the cops, but this conveyor belt of criticism, impossible workload, and continually altering priorities must be disheartening to the point of moral crushing.

Third world britain.

Broken windows theory...

Be tough on all minor crime and offences, and deter minor criminals from turning into serious criminals.
