www.privateofficer.com A Baton Rouge police officer is under arrest today on charges that he falsified timesheets for off-duty security work at an area bank. Investigators say that the problem is, those hours were never worked, and the officer falsified his timesheets.
Police say 27-year-old Jerald Holmes resigned from the department Tuesday and was booked into the parish prison on theft and malfeasance charges.
A department spokesman says Holmes was paid for hours he didn’t work as a security guard for Hancock Bank.
Police said that they were notified about the falsified documents and began an investigation into the officer’s off-duty security officers.
Police did not say how much money Holmes was over paid or if there had been any other problems with his work performance as a city officer.
Holmes joined the Police Department in June 2006.
