Cunnamulla police officer repo

POLICE have cleared an officer who had drunk at least 18 beers when he was pulled from a pub on his day off to breath-test a driver in Cunnamulla.

An internal inquiry by the Ethical Standards Command ruled no action should be taken against Senior Constable Adam Reedy, despite widespread outrage and concerns by Queensland Police Minister Judy Spence.

Police have refused to answer questions or provide reasons as to why the decision has been made.

Senior Constable Reedy, who was a constable in Cunnamulla on May 14, 2005, returned to the pub to finish his beer after the breath-test about 10pm.

He drank rums and coke at another hotel before declaring himself on duty about 12.45am on May 15, when he tried to arrest a woman he said spat at him.

An internal investigation was only ordered after it came to light in The Courier-Mail - three years after the incident.

A spokeswoman for Ms Spence said last night she was still to see the report.

A two-line police statement read: "The investigation into this matter is finalised and there will be no further action taken. As this matter is finalised it would be inappropriate for the QPS to provide any further comment."
