Gloucestershire Police officer dismissed following gross misconduct hearing
PC Samuel Jameson has been dismissed without notice
A Gloucestershire Police officer has been dismissed without a notice period following a gross misconduct hearing.
PC Samuel Jameson was found yesterday (29th April) to have breached professional standards of behaviour by the police force's Standards Department.
The officer was suspended from duty back in April 2023, after concerns about his behaviour towards female colleagues and members of the public were raised.
A panel was told PC Jameson told a student officer in their first meeting that she ought to finish her relationship with her partner as they might sleep together.
The panel also heard he asked the same tutee which tutor she would like to sleep with most.
On top of demonstrating sexually inappropriate behaviours towards colleagues, PC Jameson was also said to have made sexualised and derogatory comments about female members of the public to colleagues while on duty.
The final allegation made against PC Jameson was that he had made derogatory comments about other female colleagues, calling them overconfident and suggesting they were arrogant.
PC Jameson's name has been added to the Police Barred List.
Deputy Chief Constable Katy Barrow-Grint said: "There is no place at Gloucestershire Constabulary for men like PC Jameson who abuse their position to take advantage of less experienced female officers and are derogatory to colleagues and members of the public.
"I am pleased the panel has concluded his predatory and misogynistic behaviour warranted dismissal."
