Four New York City police officers are in a love rectangle, which led to the officers being stripped of their firearms to prevent them from being utilized in a possible shooting. Sergeant Kandou Worley cheated on his girlfriend, officer Tyeis Coppin, with a fellow officer, Stephanie Gallardo whose husband, Cristian Gallardo, is also an officer according to the New York Post.

Anticipating there could be a violent response due to the love rectangle the officers’ supervisors took away their weapons to prevent such an occurrence. Worley, 40, and Stephanie Gallardo, 33, were both working in the department’s Strategic Response Group when their affair began last year.

The officers were caught when Coppin, 41, found incriminating photos on his cellphone. Coppin allegedly posted the photos on Worley’s Instagram account with the captions“I told my girl I loved her 10 mins b4 I f–ked this one,” and “She’s someone’s wife, she’s not my girl tho. I have one and this is not her!!!!”

Then on Dec. 26, Worley informed Stephanie the photos were online and the department found out two days later. Stephanie admitted to the department that she and Worley had a “personal relationship” during September and October of last year. However, the officer said she and Cristian Gallardo, 28, had been separated since March, even though they’re still living together and raising their 20-month-old daughter.

The officer also claimed, “that with the exception of kissing while together off-duty on a number of occasions, the relationship [with Worley] was not intimate.”

The NYPD said there were a total of nine guns that were taken from the four officers under a section of the department Patrol Guide that permits impounding firearms in “non-disciplinary cases,” including those involving “stress as a result of family or other situations.”

An NYPD spokesman told the Post, all four officers were given back their guns and returned to active duty, pending the results of the SOD investigation.

Lt. John Grimpel said that the NYPD Patrol Guide does not prohibit relationships between cops even involving a superior and a subordinate — “except if you’re a police supervisor in the police academy” The New York Post reported.

“Any police officer in the academy cannot have a relationship with a recruit in the academy,” Grimpel said.
