Officer Grimmett – University of Alaska Anchorage Police Department

Written by CBKN76

In October 2008, Officer Grimmett was terminated for engaging in ‘self-ticketing,’ a practice where he issued parking citations to himself to avoid penalties for illegal parking. This conduct violated multiple University policies, including misuse of authority and conduct unbecoming. Despite admitting to the practice and acknowledging its wrongfulness, Grimmett argued that the department’s culture did not clearly prohibit such actions. The termination was upheld after a hearing, with the hearing officer emphasizing the seriousness of the misconduct and the importance of maintaining integrity within the police department.
