Husband accepted police action on behalf of his wife

[FictionalCharacter]

This story is about the police officer's misconduct. But surely it isn't right for a husband to sign this paperwork on behalf of his wife?!

If the plod came to my house when I was out to accuse me of something, I'd expect DH to tell them to get lost come back when I'm home, not sign something to accept that I'm guilty of a crime.

My DH recently had some involvement with the police over something incredibly trivial. If an officer had come round asking me to sign something about it on his behalf he would probably just have been pleased I dealt with it.

I guess I’m the only one who’s amused by the fact the woman picking the mushrooms is called Mrs Gather?

If they were slap dash and lazy with this insignificant offence - what else hasn’t been filed in an accurate manner?

This is the worry - are there other people with similar things on their record that they may be unaware of?

His response was that his actions were the result of annoyance that his time was being wasted with 'unnecessary' work. It could call anything he's had a hand in into question.
