Update: The officer in the video has been identified as Francesco Marlett, and he was suspended Tuesday evening, according to Fox 5 Washington D.C.
The Prince George’s County Police Department has launched a probe into one of its own following the emergence of footage that seemingly depicts the officer making out with a woman before getting into the back seat of his patrol SUV.
The clip, which shows the officer kissing and exchanging intimacies with the woman in what looks like a playground, has gone viral. In the video, while the two are kissing, the woman affectionately touches the officer’s head. Then, she enters the rear of the vehicle with the officer’s arm around her.
Voices can be heard on the video, seemingly of Spanish-speaking men commenting in disbelief about what they see.
“Look! Look! He’s taking her to the car!” someone says.

Many online expressed outrage about how inappropriate the PGCP cop’s conduct appeared.
“He’s doing this at a playground full of children in broad daylight,” a comment read.
“That’s his pay for play. There is no way to reasonably make an excuse for what we see,” one X user wrote. “Treat him they way y’all treat us. In front of kids and probably in a school zone at that.”
