## Resource

A NSW police officer, Steven Hyde, remains on the force after being found guilty of assaulting a man in a hospital — a shocking incident caught on camera where he struck an unconscious overdose victim. Despite claiming self-defense and citing his experience, a judge upheld the conviction, but instead of a criminal record, he received a 12-month good behavior bond. The police department has disciplined him with rank loss, restricted duties for two years, and mandatory retraining — yet he’s still officially employed. This lenient outcome sparks serious questions about accountability for officers who harm civilians, especially in vulnerable settings like hospitals.
