Former Sussex police officer banned from policing over sexual harassment
A misconduct hearing found Seb Day breached professional standards by sending suggestive texts to a female colleague in 2021.
A former police officer would have been dismissed had he still being serving after an investigation found he had sexually harassed a female colleague.
39-year-old Ex-Detective Sergeant Seb Day, who was based at Brighton and Hove division, was the subject of a misconduct hearing on Monday (15 September).
The allegation amounted to a breach of the standards of professional behaviour relating to authority, respect and courtesy and discreditable conduct.
He was suspended once the allegations were reported and an investigation commenced. He resigned in November 2022.
The panel found the allegation of sexual harassment proven and that this amounted to gross misconduct. He would have been dismissed had he not resigned from the force and he will now be added to the College of Policing Barred list which will prevent a return to policing.
