Greater Manchester Police special constable who assaulted boy, 7, for spraying him with water is barred from policing
A Greater Manchester Police special constable who assaulted a seven-year-old boy has been barred from policing following a misconduct hearing.
Liverpool Magistrates Court previously heard that Parkinson was walking through the Bolton street where both he and the boy's family lived at the time. He said the dad opened the door to see his son looking 'terrified and white as a sheet'. A neighbour sitting nearby and the other children who had been playing with the boy also saw the incident, and an argument then broke out close to the boy’s home before Parkinson was reported to the police.
Ben Berkson, defending, said his client, who is described as a 'devout Christian', deeply regretted the incident and wanted to compensate the boy's family. Mr Berkson added that Parkinson realised he was very likely to be stripped of his role as a special constable, something he had done for 35 years. He had already been suspended by GMP.
Summing up, CC Watson said: "Mr Parkinson’s offending behaviour was clearly unlawful, contrary to the clearest of instructions as to the standards required of our officers, and reckless as to the potential risk of injury to another implied in his actions.
