Savage found guilty of gross misconduct by the IOPC.
“A police misconduct panel found the officer breached standards as he had forcefully smashed the window without warning.
He was also found to have lost control and to have been carrying the knife without permission.”
Just a slight technicality the IOPC didn't find him guilty. The Met Police misconduct panel did. “A police misconduct panel found the officer breached standards as he had forcefully smashed the window without warning.
He was also found to have lost control and to have been carrying the knife without permission.”

Did you choose to ignore the part in all of the reporting that then goes on to say
'Released without charge?'
Or would that be an uncomfortable truth, that the chap involved had done nothing wrong, other than 'being in the possession of curly black hair and thick lips'.
Or the CPS decided there wasn't enough evidence to make a charge stick in court'Released without charge?'
Or would that be an uncomfortable truth, that the chap involved had done nothing wrong, other than 'being in the possession of curly black hair and thick lips'.
And that's the reason so many people get off with things they are guilty off

He resigned prior to the hearing so I don’t think the sanction will matter too much to him...
Nearly three years for something so minor!
He should've resigned as soon as he got back to the station that day...Nearly three years for something so minor!

Does he still get to keep his pension?
Yes even if he doesn't resign. Losing (Most) of their pension happens only "if the grantee has been convicted of an offence committed in connection with his service as a member of a police force which is certified by the Secretary of State either to have been gravely injurious to the interests of the state or to be liable to lead to serious loss of confidence in the public services."It's pretty rare.

Or an offence ( or offences ) under The Official Secrets Act to which he has been sentenced to a term of at least 10 years imprisonment.
Regulation K5 iirc.

Why shouldn't he keep his pension? It will be s

Isn't that enough ?
Why should he also lose a ( small,deferred) pension he has contributed to ?
Would you lose your pension if you were sacked ( or resigned) from your job ?
