In England, Northumbria Police has fired Police Constable Philip Aiston after a panel found he failed to notify a couple of the death of their son, as he was told to do, then lied about it for two years.

The panel found that not notifying the parents didn’t warrant disciplinary action but the multiple lies he told his superiors did.
