The Police Minister says he's pleased former Deputy Police Commissioner Jevon McSkimming's pleaded guilty to having child exploitation and bestiality images on work devices.

He admitted to three representative charges in Wellington District Court this afternoon.

Court documents reveal the 52-year-old made thousands of Google searches, many seeking AI-generated or cartoon images.

Police Minister Mark Mitchell says this result shows no-one's above the law - but this behaviour reflects poorly on the police.

"For every one officer - and it's a big organisation, so you're always going to have some people that don't uphold the standards. But most of our police officers do, they're out there every day, they're doing tens of thousands of positive acts."
