Humberside Police officers dismissed over WhatsApp messages | York Press

Four Humberside Police officers have been barred from working in policing and two have received final written warnings after being part of a “sexist, racist, homophobic, anti-Semitic” WhatsApp group. Three other officers from the force were also barred from policing after “offensive and inappropriate” messages to each other. The misconduct hearings were held in 2019, but the results have just been made public after a linked court case ended last month with two officers being acquitted. The investigation into six officers who were part of an offensive WhatsApp group led to three officers being dismissed without notice and one being told he would have been dismissed if he had not already resigned. All four officers were placed on the barred list which prevents them from working in policing. Two of the officers received final written warnings as their messages were deemed to be not as persistent and targeted as some others in the group.
