Key West Police Officer Fired Over MySpace Photos

Patti Child Allegedly Violated Probationary Standards

KEY WEST (CBS4) ― A Key West police officer is off the job after pictures she posted on her MySpace page showed "conduct umbecoming" of an officer.

In the pictures, former officer Patti Child and her friends were posing provocatively. In one of the photos Child can be seen pulling up her skirt from behind; other pictures include her groping women and being groped herself by both men and women. All of the people in the pictures were fully clothed and they were posted in a section that required Child's permission to access.

The department became aware of the pictures after they were published in a local newspaper.

Interim Key West Police Chief Donie Lee said that Child was on a one year probation period and failed to meet standards.
