For those still following, The Post and Courier has followed up with a longer report on why the one officer is out of job and why a sheriff's deputy posing on the car isn't fired; read it here.

Also, Live 5 News has posted several more of the photos and a good video about the job loss.

Update September 22, 1:03 p.m.:

Ladies and gents, the photograph is now posted on The Post and Courier's website.

Go take a look.


First reporting:

A Moncks Corner police officer is out of a job thanks to good old Facebook.

Incriminating photos pulled up on the officer's Facebook account showed bikini-clad women from Diamonds North night club draped all over the officer's squad car during this weekend's "Tit n Tats" car wash.

The Moncks Corner Police Department says the photograph is in direct violation of the rules governing the use, and in this case, misuse of take-home cruisers.

There aren't any photographs attached to the post, however, you can hop over to The Post and Courier and read it in it's entirety.
