Two police officers under investigation for that serious crime….babysitting

Two police officers are having their conduct reviewed by the Government, surprisingly for the offence of babysitting each other children, a task they have been told they must discontinue, unless they want to face prosecution.
The Milton Keynes Detective Constable Leanne Shepherd was told by Ofsted, that she had an ‘illegal’ agreement with another officer, DC Lucy Jarrett.
Both 32 year old women have watched each other’s daughters two times a week over the last few years, while each were on different ten hour shifts at the Aylesbury police station, to make their work schedules more compatible with their family lives.
Ofsted launched an investigation due to the fact that government legislation dictates anyone who baby sits over two hours at one time, or over 14 days a year, must register as a child minder and take a class in first aid training, if the children are under five.
