Every Officer Hauled Before Nuclear Police Misconduct Hearings Was Dismissed Or Found To Have Deserved The Sack

REVEALED: Every officer brought before a Civil Nuclear Constabulary misconduct hearing during the first half of 2026 was dismissed or found to have deserved dismissal, a Misconduct999 analysis has revealed — in cases involving child sexual offences, theft, dishonesty, drink-driving and sexualised comments.

Every officer brought before a Civil Nuclear Constabulary misconduct hearing during the first half of 2026 was dismissed or found to have deserved dismissal, a Misconduct999 analysis has revealed.

Five officers faced hearings at Britain’s specialist nuclear police force between January and June — and every one was found to have committed gross misconduct.

Two serving officers were dismissed without notice, while panels ruled that three former constables would have been dismissed had they not already resigned.

The disturbing catalogue of cases included child sexual offences, inappropriate sexualised comments towards a colleague, theft, drink-driving and lies told during a criminal investigation.

In every case, the Civil Nuclear Constabulary published a full written decision explaining how the panel reached its findings.

Former PC Aiden Love was the first to face a hearing, on January 15.

Love had pleaded guilty to causing a young child to look at a sexual image and communicating indecently with a young child.

He was sentenced to three years’ supervision, ordered to complete 225 hours of unpaid work and placed on the sex offenders register.

A misconduct panel found that he would have been dismissed had he remained a serving officer.

Just 13 days later, former PC Kevin Moore appeared on the force’s misconduct list over unwarranted, inappropriate and sexualised comments made to a colleague while he was undertaking his initial training.

Moore was removed from the training programme in September 2024 and suspended the following April.

He resigned in June 2025 and refused to take part in either the misconduct investigation or the hearing.

The panel found gross misconduct proved and ruled that he would have been dismissed had he remained in the force.

The third case centred on PC A, who gave police two materially different accounts after reporting that he had been assaulted and robbed.

The officer signed a formal witness statement before admitting six days later that his original account was inaccurate.

His two versions differed over where the alleged attack happened, why he was there, how long he had been at the location, the number of attackers and the offences supposedly committed against him.

The panel said the officer had initially lied to his family, then to police and later to his inspector.

It found that his culpability and the risk of harm were both high, warning that his statements could have undermined a criminal trial.

PC A argued that a final written warning would be sufficient.

But the panel rejected his plea and dismissed him without notice after finding that his actions amounted to gross misconduct.

Former PC Lee Brennan was next before a panel after turning up for work having driven while over the alcohol limit.

A breath test at his workplace showed he was above the prescribed limit.

Brennan later pleaded guilty to drink-driving. He was banned from driving for 12 months and fined £120.

The panel found gross misconduct proved and ruled that he would have been dismissed had he not already resigned.

The final hearing involved PC Wayne Clark, who accepted an adult caution for theft from a person following his arrest in October 2025.

Clark breached the professional standards relating to honesty and integrity, discreditable conduct, and orders and instructions.

He was dismissed without notice.

The five decisions reveal a repeated focus on criminality, dishonesty and behaviour capable of shattering public confidence in those entrusted with police powers.

Three of the five officers had resigned before their hearings. The remaining two were dismissed.

The figures relate only to misconduct hearings held between January 1 and June 30, 2026, and do not represent the conduct of the wider Civil Nuclear Constabulary workforce.

But among those cases serious enough to reach a misconduct hearing, the result was absolute: five hearings, five gross misconduct findings, and five policing careers brought to an end.
