The un-named cop’s unusual offer came to light at the cops’ Citizens Review Committee meeting on Tuesday night, as part of a complaint made by the woman, who alleged the officer had failed to properly advise her on her options in court.

After the woman filed a complaint with the Independent Police Review, the officer contacted her by email offering to pay for half the ticket. His actions were found to constitute a breach of the Bureau’s professional conduct rules by its Performance Review Board, although the woman’s original complaint about receiving bad advice was turned down because it is not a cop’s job to give legal advice.
