'Abused his position' | Detective sacked after sexually touching junior officer

A police detective sergeant has been sacked for inappropriate sexual conduct, following a probe by the Independent Office for Police Conduct (IOPC).

DS Gary Stamp of Kent Police was found to have sexually touched a more junior female police constable in 2020 on two occasions at a police station, including one incident when both were on duty. He later dissuaded her from reporting the matter after she objected to his behaviour.
