A West Midlands Police officer has been dismissed after accessing police records around 2,000 times, according to the findings of a misconduct hearing.
The hearing was told that many of the records contained sensitive material and what was described as intimate information. The scale of the access formed the central issue in the disciplinary proceedings.
The officer’s actions were examined through the force’s misconduct process. The outcome was dismissal, meaning the officer has been sacked from West Midlands Police.
No further details about the records, the individuals involved or the officer’s role have been provided in the available material. The latest known position is that the misconduct hearing has concluded with the officer’s removal from the force.
