Cop Gets Job Back After Sex In Car

Item: Spokane officer gets his job back after being accused of improper conduct: Mediator: Sex with woman in unmarked car doesn't warrant firing/KXLY

More Info: An arbitrator assigned to the case ruled that his behavior was conduct unbecoming of an office, but did not warrant termination. Uberuaga was a 10-year veteran when he was fired for what the police department viewed as inappropriate behavior for an off-duty officer. Uberuaga used his department-issued cell phone to take pictures of a naked woman and then had sex with her in his unmarked police car in a Spokane Valley tavern parking lot.

Question: Would you want this guy on your police force?
