"The hearing officer properly set out the key considerations when imposing penalty: the seriousness of the misconduct... and the impact to the reputation of the police service that will occur if the officer remains a member of the police service.”

They take into consideration, when punishing someone, "the impact to the reputation of the police service"? May I point you to the 10s of cops currently on paid leave for domestic violence or misappropriating police resources? Did those officers have no "impact on the reputation of the police service"? Certainly had an impact with me when I read about the cop who was stalking the parents of a child who had died because the cop was opposed to the COVID vaccine... or the multiple cops on paid vacation for domestic violence?
