A N.J. police officer who was fired after allegations that he pressured a woman to model Victoria’s Secret lingerie for him will get his job back.
Anthony Sarni sued after he lost his job in October for his conduct at the Extended Stay America hotel nearly four years ago, which nj.com noted was called the “lingerie episode.”
A woman had said that the Edison police officer returned to her hotel room after responding to an emergency call and requested that she model lingerie for him, according to nj.com.
She eventually complied, — once Sarni allegedly used the marijuana he had let her flush down the toilet as leverage — and the cop admitted he asked her to try on outfits, although he denied the marijuana usage and that sex was involved, according to nj.com.
The Edison cop was ultimately fired for allegedly lying to investigators about allegedly pressuring a woman to model lingerie for him in her hotel room, according to The New York Daily News.
The police department’s effort to fire Sarni was marked by failures such as missed deadlines and an Internal Affairs investigation that was severely compromised, according to state Superior Court Judge Douglas K. Wolfson in the nj.com report.
“We are pleased that now two tribunals, a hearing officer and a well respected experienced Superior Court Judge, have concluded after hearing the evidence that Officer Sarni did not lie or provide false information to internal affairs,” Sarni’s lawyer, Steven Cahn, told nj.com. “Officer Sarni is anxious to get back to work serving the residents of the township. He wants to get back to work.”
Sarni had denied the woman’s version of these events during an interview with internal affairs investigators, but later admitted that he went back to her room at 2 a.m. — off duty but in full uniform, according to the reports.
According to the complaint, the woman refused to allow the situation to progress into a physical encounter, but Sarni he began texting and calling her, prompting her to contact the Edison police, according to the reports.
