Yesterday the Queensland Police Service finalised a discipline hearing with a 59-year-old Senior Constable for failing to fully act on an initial report of a missing person thereby failing to perform duties in a professional and diligent manner.
The officer was found guilty of a breach of discipline with the official sanction of reprimand being imposed.
The officer is eligible to review the internal discipline decision within 14 days to the Commissioner of Police Service Reviews.
The QPS acknowledges the First Nations – Aboriginal peoples and Torres Strait Islander peoples, as the Traditional Owners of the lands throughout Australia, and their connection to country and community. We pay our respect to all Traditional Owners, and to their Elders past, present and emerging. We pay our respects to the First Nations’ ancestors of this land and their legacy. The foundations by these ancestors — our First Nations people — gives strength, inspiration and courage to current and future generations, both Indigenous and non-Indigenous.
