Not sure how this department works, but in the NYPD there are certain disqualifying events that can make you lose your job. A felony conviction is pretty obvious, but there are also "Oath of Office Violations" like perjury, and giving false testimony in court, since now you're unreliable to any prosecutor in the city and can't testify in court because the defense council WILL use that during cross-examination to help their client. There are no penalties for lying to the public on the street though, as long as you stay courteous while doing it.
