Police inspector sacked for making sexual comments on night out

A police inspector has been dismissed from Cumbria Constabulary for making sexual comments to colleagues on a night out.

Simon Gee was also accused of intentionally touching a colleague’s bare leg.

Gee, employed by Cumbria Constabulary since July 2020, was subject of an independent misconduct hearing between April 11 and 14.

Gee faced four allegations of misconduct. Two were found to amount to gross misconduct and two were found to amount to misconduct.

The hearing found that his actions were so serious as to justify dismissal.

Gee was investigated after his colleagues raised their concerns about his behaviour on a night out to the constabulary’s professional standards department.  

As a result of the hearing, Gee will be placed on the College of Policing’s barred list.

Cumbria Constabulary’s Deputy Chief Constable Rob Carden said: “Cumbria police holds its officers to the highest standards of integrity, whether on or off duty. It is clear that this officer fell far below these standards.

“Whilst this incident took place when the officer was off duty, his comments and actions towards policing colleagues were inappropriate and inexcusable. 

“No police officer should act in this way.

“The finding of gross misconduct will result not only in the officer’s dismissal from the force, but also addition to the barred list, meaning the individual will not be able to become a police officer elsewhere.

“I can assure the public that this officer’s actions are wholly unrepresentative of our police officers and staff, who work every day to keep people safe and in a manner which we can all be proud.

“I hope that the outcome of the misconduct proceedings will demonstrate to the public that all allegations against police officers and staff are treated with the utmost seriousness, investigated thoroughly and, where wrong-doing is found to be evidenced, significant action taken to hold them accountable.

“I would like to thank the panel, and in particular the independent legally qualified chair, for their thoroughness and diligence throughout this hearing.”
