New Zealand policewoman found moonlighting as prostitute July 20, 2006 Other New Zealand stories
Location of New Zealand An Auckland, New Zealand policewoman, who has not been named, has been working part-time as a prostitute. Her employer, Auckland City Police, did not know that she had been working as a prostitute for a limited time. She has been able to keep her police job. Prostitution became legal in New Zealand in 2003. The police officer was prostituting herself because of financial difficulties. She is now undergoing counselling. The New Zealand Police would not comment on how long she had been acting as a prostitute. Lyn Provost, Deputy Commissioner, said "the nature of the secondary employment was incompatible with policing and would never have been approved. Commonsense dictates that most officers simply know that sex work is not compatible with their role as police officers." The police say that if a police officer was to seek secondary employment then it must be signed off, this job hadn't been. Ron Mark, New Zealand First Party Law and Order spokesman, said "the case is concerning, because while prostitution is legal, it is associated with criminal activity." Sources
