Avi Maharaj - The pawnography watching policeman
Discussion
Setting aside the incredible inappropriateness of this - you really have to wonder how bright this guy is, did he think it wouldn't be noticed!?
And why didn't he just look at pornhub on his mobile?

He won’t get an easy time in prison from the other inmates, I expect.
Someone I know went to prison for 2 yrs, he is very normal looking. He gave a lot of prison currency (tuna) to a particularly nasty looking fella to look after him. The nasty chap came to his cell and said a rumour was going around that a policeman had been sent to that prison and as this chap I know looked the most ‘straight" they assumed it was him and word was he was going to get the bad news. He had to clear his name very quickly.

In normal circumstances someone wouldn't go to prison for a minor fraud. They wouldn't even go to court. They'd get a caution (if they admitted it).
However, it's a pretty aggravated offence in the circumstances so a custodial sentence is probably justified. Perhaps 6 months may have been a better balance given the lack of risk he poses etc.

I don't think that'll be the case. I've known of police officers who've gone to prison and had no issues. 
ker!

In what way?He fraudulently downloaded porn to watch on the family's account whilst their dead son was in the other room. The family who were trusting him to guard their house and son until he was removed. They also initially believed their son downloaded the films.

Scum.
Why was he guarding a dead body anyway?
That doesn’t seem like normal service the police provide.
It's a sudden, unnatural death so it must be reported to the coroner. The police act on behalf of the coroner during a sudden death and will complete a report for the coroner. Why was he guarding a dead body anyway?

A suicide is usually treated as a crime scene until it's believed it is a suicide and nothing suspicious.
The body isn't being 'guarded' as such. It's for continuity between the police and people who will remove the body. There doesn't want to be a gap which can't be accounted for in case something is discovered later on. Whether that be cause / injuries / property going missing from the body etc.
There can also be delicate issues which need to be resolved i.e. the family won't want the child to be removed etc.

Being punished more severely because he's a police officer is fair enough, but is his crime technically any worse because of the circumstances? The judge seems to think so.
What would be the normal punishment for hacking an internet account and stealing videos worth a few quid?
12 months jail seems a bit excessive.
Agreed.What would be the normal punishment for hacking an internet account and stealing videos worth a few quid?
12 months jail seems a bit excessive.
But I suspect the judge is sending a message.
Whatever that means.

Seems right to me given the wider circumstances and the impact on the family. He'll be in a low sec prison after 3(?) months and out in 6.What would be the normal punishment for hacking an internet account and stealing videos worth a few quid?
12 months jail seems a bit excessive.
Either way, not fit to be a police officer in any shape or form.
