A FORMER detective constable would have been sacked for using ‘key jamming’ to skive if he hadn't already retired.
-
Niall Thubron, formerly of Durham Constabulary, had been working on investigations into serious crime on the “High Harm Investigation Team’.
A misconduct hearing heard how he used “key jamming” - repeatedly fixing one character on the keyboard to make it look like his computer was in use and he was working from home - 38 times on 12 different days between December 3, 2024 and January 13, 2025.
