A SHAMELESS Met officer has been sacked after a sleazy campaign of “inappropriate touching” that targeted six of his female colleagues.
PC Jayson Lynch, who was based in the South West Command Unit, was booted out of the force on Friday following a gross misconduct hearing.
The disgraced copper spent months pawing at fellow officers while on duty, grabbing them by the waist, hips, arms, and even their feet.
But his “discreditable conduct” didn’t stop with his colleagues.
In a shocking breach of trust, Lynch was also found to have cracked “inappropriate, sexual jokes” to a vulnerable young girl.
The girl was under police guard in a hospital when Lynch targeted her with the sick gags in July 2023.
Between October 2023 and May 2024, Lynch’s behavior escalated as he repeatedly touched female officers over their clothing and made a series of lewd, sexual comments.
’Met bosses moved to sack Lynch immediately, ruling that his behavior was so serious it justified him being stripped of his badge on the spot.
Chief Superintendent Dan Knowles fumed: “PC Lynch’s behaviour fell well short of that expected of a serving officer. There is no place for inappropriate behaviour in policing or in any workplace.”
He added that the Met is determined to “drive up standards” and remove officers who have “no place in our organisation.”
Lynch has now been placed on the College of Policing’s barred list, meaning he can never work as a copper again.
He is also banned from working for local policing bodies or the police watchdog.
