On Thursday 25 March 2021, two police constables were dismissed without notice from Devon and Cornwall Police, after members of the misconduct panel found that their actions amounted to gross misconduct.
PC Shaun Pearce and PC Daniel Pike faced allegations that in 2019, they breached the standards appropriate to the conduct of a police officer in respect of honesty, integrity, authority, respect, courtesy, duties and responsibilities, and discreditable conduct.
