Estratto da Omnilex
A police officer was disciplined for having slapped a person who was handcuffed with hands behind the back. The disciplinary authority imposed a one-week suspension without pay. The decision confirms this sanction under LPOL.26, treating the conduct as sufficiently serious to justify a short unpaid suspension.
LPOL.26; disciplinary sanction of a police officer for violent conduct toward a restrained person; a one-week unpaid suspension is justified where the officer slaps a person already handcuffed with hands behind the back. Such conduct breaches the special duties of restraint and professionalism incumbent on police officers and may be sanctioned by a short suspension without pay when the circumstances do not require a more severe penalty.
