That's the federal guidance talking not the O.P. PSU's job is to document misconduct not just to push people to resign. An investigation should be completed to rule out misconduct by other officers and help shield the city from liability should he apply somewhere else or re-apply to LMPD. If derogatory information isn't documented, then the department could get sued when someone mentions it during a background check for future police employment.
