Cop Sacked Over Forged CPS Document and Lies to Boss
Detective Constable Fired Without Warning
Detective Constable Ricardo Jacobs has been instantly dismissed after a special hearing on 11 November. Attached to the West Area BCU, Jacobs broke serious professional standards.
Claims of Dishonesty and Forgery
Back in November 2017, Jacobs reportedly lied to a senior manager about advice from the Crown Prosecution Service (CPS). To make matters worse, he allegedly forged a CPS document to back up his story.
Gross Misconduct Proven, No Second Chances
Assistant Commissioner Helen Ball chaired the case. After reviewing all evidence, she ruled Jacobs guilty of gross misconduct. The punishment? Immediate dismissal without notice.
