A former police officer has been sentenced to prison after he was convicted of corruption.
Jonathan Fallon, aged 23, who was based at Milton Keynes police station, pleaded guilty to police corruption under Section 26 of the Criminal Justice & Courts Act (2015) in a hearing at Luton Crown Court in February of this year.
Fallon was sentenced to a year and four months' imprisonment on Monday.
Between August 4 and November 9 2023 at various locations, former PC Fallon formed an inappropriate relationship with a victim of crime, a woman aged in her late teens, and engaged in sexual intercourse with her.
The former officer would have known that this was improper behaviour.
Fallon was arrested on 23 February 2024 and was charged on 28 October 2024.
“Former PC Jonathan Fallon betrayed the trust a victim of crime put in him, and abused his position of authority," said Deputy Chief Constable Ben Snuggs, "In doing so he fell far below the high standards we expect, undermined public confidence and let down his colleagues.
"I am very clear that there is no place in the force for officers who behave like this. I want to place on record my thanks to the witness in this case who came forward and exposed this corrupt behaviour.
“Former PC Fallon was dismissed without notice following his conviction at an accelerated misconduct hearing on 4 March where he was found to have breached the standards of professional behaviour in respect of Authority, Respect & Courtesy, Honesty & Integrity, Orders & Instructions and Discreditable Conduct.
“His name has also been placed on the barred list, which means he will never be able to work in policing again.”
