The police officer arrested three times has finally quit her job

We appreciate that sometimes you make mistakes and your employer is going to be less than enthused about it.

We’re still struggling to come to terms with a New York police officer who managed to get herself on the wrong side of the law three times in six months. The irony is not lost on us.

Stacey Staniland, 29, left the NYPD on Monday after she was arrested twice for drug possession and once for burglary. All incidents occurring since December 2014 reports the New York Daily News.

Each time Stacey faced a suspension, but now she’s going to have to face the charges while also no longer being someone who supposedly enforces the laws she broke.

Stacey’s fellow officers spotted a needle in her bag when she was being asked for her identification after she crashed her motorcycle on Staten Island at the end of June.

When the officers tried to find registration for her motorcycle, it didn’t exist. Stacey had to face a charge of driving an unregistered vehicle too.

A month before hand, officers had found other drug related items on Stacey’s person in Brooklyn.

These weren’t even the first times the former NYPD officer had managed to get her employer ten different kinds of mad. In December 2014, Stacey had allegedly taken jewellery from her boyfriend’s mom, which had been kept at the woman’s home.

So, not only did she break into her boyfriend’s mom’s house, she also tried to steal her necklaces and bracelets. Then she took them to a pawn shop. Not the best way to befriend your boyfriend’s family.

After a half a year of having her legal cases going through court and maintaining a position as a police officer, Stacey has resigned this week.

No word on whether she’s had to hand over her “Little Miss Dangerous” motorcycle helmet along with her badge, but we imagine she might have to let that go.
