Misconduct hearing outcome for former Leicestershire police officer PC Danielle Perkins

Misconduct hearing outcome for former Leicestershire police officer PC Danielle Perkins

A former police constable was the subject of a gross misconduct hearing on 15 November.

Danielle Perkins faced allegations that she breached the standards of professional behaviour, namely honesty and integrity and discreditable conduct.

In January 2022, she phoned in sick in order to attend a social gathering with her colleagues. Former PC Perkins resigned from her role in October this year.

At the hearing, the panel found that the allegations were proven and, had she still been in service, she would have been dismissed without notice.
