A former Greater Manchester Police officer, Christopher Saddoo, has been found to have breached professional standards of conduct due to the sharing of 'grossly offensive and shocking' racist, misogynistic, and ableist messages. Saddoo resigned from GMP in 2014 but would have been dismissed had he not done so.
A Greater Manchester Police officer shared 'grossly offensive and shocking' texts, photos, videos and memes. Now former PC Christopher Saddoo exchanged 'numerous messages with a known third party'.
He resigned from GMP in September, 2014. Chief Constable Watson said in the ruling he found allegations Mr Saddoo breached various standards of professional behaviour to be proven and that they amounted to gross misconduct. "It is also clear that this type of behaviour falls squarely into that which understandably concerns the public greatly in the light of contemporary failures of police standards, discipline and behaviour," he went on.
