A former police officer has had a misconduct allegation proven against him after it was alleged he had driven in a dangerous and careless manner.
A disciplinary hearing was held at Sussex Police Headquarters on Tuesday 11 April, in front of a panel led by an Independent Legally Qualified Chair (LQC). LQCs are selected from a list of independent, legally-qualified persons to conduct police misconduct hearings, and are governed by Police Conduct Regulations. They work with the Association of Police and Crime Commissioners and others to instil and embed as much transparency and proportionality into misconduct hearings.
