A British police officer was once charged with misconduct Thursday then he was once stuck on bodycam pictures allegedly swiping money off the frame of a useless actor in London.
Metropolitan Police Constable Craig Carter, 51, is accused of stealing £170, or $214, from Italian filmmaker Claudio Gaetani, who suffered a devastating middle assault age biking on a hectic town boulevard in September 2022.
Carter “wilfully and without reasonable excuse or justification misconducted yourself in a way which amounted to an abuse of the public’s trust in the office holder by stealing cash from a deceased male who has passed away in the street,” officers stated.
Photos of the allegedly sticky-fingered cop counting the loot was once exposed when a pal of Gaetani spotted that his pockets was once blank when it was once returned through police.
Gaetani, 45, had exchanged over 200 Euros for the tiny sum on the airport the evening earlier than then he landed from Italy for a theatre pageant within the Southbank, she told the Mirror.
He was once on his option to meet with the good friend and her husband he could be staying with when he collapsed and died from a middle assault.
“The money is not the issue. [Claudio] comes from quite a wealthy family. I’m still doing [this complaint] not because of the money but because people who are in uniform they should have a kind of trust. I think it is really disrespectful. I was really, really upset,” the good friend instructed the opening.
Carter was once to begin with put on limited tasks and after suspended then the costs had been introduced ill Thursday.
He’s due again at Westminster Magistrates Courtroom on Friday. He has no longer but entered a plea.
