Officer Reprimanded after Posting DUI Pictures on Site
Robbie Arkovich, a St. Petersburg police officer, has been using photographs taken during DUI arrests to teach at the police academy.
According to the St. Petersburg Times, the 19-year-old veteran was issued a low-level written reprimand for posting pictures from DUI investigations on his personal Web site.
The situation became an issue after a father complained to the department about his son’s photo being on the site after a May car crash.
On Monday, an assistant chief’s chain of command board found that Arkovich violated department rules, which banned the use of personal recording devices while on duty.

Nothing seems to be easier than seeing someone whom you can help but not helping.
I suggest we start giving it a try. Give love to the ones that need it.
God will appreciate it.

Do you need permission from the offenders to use their pics in a teaching environment?
