Officer under investigation for using AI to log confidential investigation decisions; parallel probe targets AI-generated evidence in police work. Governance gap in high-stakes AI deployment: risk of fabrications and confidentiality breaches in evidence handling across legal sectors.
A senior police detective in Derbyshire is being investigated over potential gross misconduct related to AI usage.
The investigation by the Independent Office for Police Conduct began with a voluntary referral by the Derbyshire Police following an internal review of the department’s use of AI.
The probe comes two months after a criminal investigation into another officer who allegedly used AI systems to “create evidential material” in a number of cases.
