Three Palm Beach County Sherriff's deputies are in hot water as it has been revealed to their office that they had taken photos with 50 Cent at a county courthouse.
According to CBS Miami, the deputies received "verbal counseling" for their fangirl moment with the rapper. It has been reported that Fif appeared at the county courthouse earlier this month regarding a civil lawsuit.
The disciplinary report says they gave "a poor perspective and lack of neutrality" and were "neglecting their assigned duties."
In a video captured by the Palm Beach Post, the G-Unit rapper can be seen taking photos with several fans and towards the end, two female police officers walk on either side of him with their hands around his waist.
"All parties involved placed themselves in a position of disadvantage by taking on a laize-faire attitude, due to Mr. Jackson's singing background," the officer's supervisor also wrote in the report, per The Boombox.
Last month, police officers in California found themselves in a similar situation after posing for photos with Ray J after a traffic stop.
As previously reported, officers stopped the singer in San Fernando Valley on the premise that Ray J had been texting while driving his Bentley. He told the officers that he was simply struggling to connect his Bluetooth, and they let him off with a warning.
But instead of stepping back into their squad car, the officers asked Ray to step out of his vehicle for a photo.
According to TMZ, the Los Angeles Police Department planned to launch an internal affairs investigation. It is reportedly against policy for policemen to take pictures with a driver after letting him off the hook because it creates an appearance of impropriety.
