Police officer convicted of groping woman at Defqon.1 festival in Penrith

Share this story

A suspended police officer is likely to lose his job after admitting that he groped a woman at last year’s Defqon.1 music festival in Penrith.

Constable Mitchell James Willey was off duty and intoxicated when he groped the woman’s vagina at the September 2017 event.

The 26-year-old pleaded guilty to indecent assault at Penrith Local Court earlier today.

Magistrate Geoff Hiatt convicted and sentenced Willey to a two-year community corrections order.

It is unlikely the Bankstown resident will keep his job with the NSW Police Force.
