Several DeKalb County police officers are under invesatigation, after being accused of having sex while on duty.
A source close to the investigation gave CBS Atlanta a videotape which showed a police officer meeting up with a woman miles outside his jurisdiction.
The tape, which was shot by a private investigator, shows an officer pulling into an RV park in Gwinnett County.
According to sources, the sergeant seen on the video was on duty. The sergeant goes inside the trailer with a woman. The two are inside for 2 and half hours. The officer then comes out of the trailer, kisses the woman goodbye and drives off.
On Wednesday, Police Chief Bill O’Brien and Public Safety Director Wiz Miller confirmed the investigations. But they said, at this point, they aren't sure if the incident on the video happened while the officer on the clock.
“One thing we do have to keep in mind is that we do have some police officers that are assigned take home vehicles. So, we don’t know if it was an on-duty or off-duty incident,” O’Brien said.
Several hours later, the sergeant and the woman were seen meeting up again at the sergeant's house.
The incident is one of two involving police officers in the last six months.
The second incident involves several officers at the south precinct.
An on-duty officer was accused of driving to an off-duty officer's house to have sex. According to our source, the officer made a cadet wait outside in the patrol car.
“The first thing you have to do is to reaffirm in their minds that they ave to be held to a higher standard,” Miller said.
The accused officers are still on the street until the investigations are complete, officials said.
