2B or not 2B? That is the question when DMP and DCS make a joint submission on sentencing.

If a Court Martial sentences someone to dismissal (with or without disgrace) you're under 1, not 2. As there's no court martial for the MCpl, you're under article 2 of the Release chapter of the QR&Os. Though I likely got it wrong - based on a five year custodial sentence that's more like a 2A than a 2B, I think.

Gah, confusing my miscreants.
The MCpl would be 2A. The MP Capt would likely be 2B.

30+ years after the tragedy...
An investigation into the Hillsborough disaster has found 12 police officers would have faced gross misconduct proceedings for "fundamental failures" on the day and "concerted efforts" to blame fans in the aftermath.
A report published on Tuesday by the Independent Office for Police Conduct (IOPC) also upheld or found cases to answer for misconduct in 92 complaints about police actions -- but the law at the time means no officers will face disciplinary proceedings because they had all retired before investigations began.
Investigations into the disaster by the IOPC and criminal probe Operation Resolve began in 2012, following the publication of the Hillsborough Independent Panel report, and cost more than £150 million ($170.49m).
Nicola Brook, a solicitor at Broudie Jackson Canter acting for several bereaved families, said it was a "bitter injustice" that no-one would be held to account.
She said: "This outcome may vindicate the bereaved families and survivors who have fought for decades to expose the truth -- but it delivers no justice.
"Instead, it exposes a system that has allowed officers to simply walk away, retiring without scrutiny, sanction or consequence for failing to meet the standards the public has every right to expect.

Shoot your partner/ former gf in the back instead of the bad guy, run away and hide while she calls in the incident.
She later dies...
SPRINGFIELD, Ill. -- The Chicago Police Department knew that Officer Carlos Baker was reckless and posed a threat to his partner, Krystal Rivera, before Baker fatally shot her last summer while the pair attempted to apprehend a suspect with a gun, a lawsuit filed Thursday claims.
Rivera, 36, had told supervisors she feared for her safety with Baker as her partner and had ended a two-year on-again, off-again romantic relationship with him shortly before the shooting on June 5, according to the lawsuit. Additionally, the department knew of Baker's history of complaints, including one filed by a woman once romantically involved with Baker who said he had threatened her with a gun in a bar, it added.
The lawsuit was filed in Cook County Circuit Court by Rivera's mother, Yolanda Rivera. It names Baker and the city of Chicago as defendants and seeks compensatory and punitive damages of more than $50,000 for most of its nine counts. It contends Baker shot Rivera in the back and failed to notify anyone of the shooting or render even rudimentary first aid to her.
“Krystal understood the dangers of this job. She accepted the risk that came with policing. What she never should have had to fear was her own partner,” Yolanda Rivera said at a news conference. “That betrayal cost Krystal’s life."
A spokesperson for the Chicago Police Department, which was not named as a defendant, declined to comment on the lawsuit. Baker does not have a listed phone number and it is unknown if he has an attorney. An email message seeking comment from the city was not immediately returned.
Rivera and Baker, both members of a police tactical unit, had conducted a traffic stop on a motorist suspected of having a gun. A foot chase ensued and ended outside an apartment. According to the lawsuit, Baker was positioned in front of the door and Rivera to the side or behind him. Baker kicked in the door to reveal the suspect with a gun.
Baker fired his weapon but struck Rivera in the back, Rivera family attorney Antonio Romanucci said, but instead of reporting that an officer had been hit, he fled to another floor of the apartment building.
“He did not attempt even the most basic first aid step of applying pressure on her wound to mitigate blood loss, or try any other lifesaving measures,” Romanucci said. “Baker left Krystal there on the floor, literally gasping. Krystal radioed in her own shooting.”

Followed by the Chicago Police giving it their best rendition of nothing to see here and Cook County State’s Attorney declining to prosecute.
