Humberside Police chose not to refer the case of Craig Mattinson to prosecutors, the BBC can reveal.
The misconduct hearing found Mr Mattinson inappropriately touched the complainants, then aged 14 and 17, between April 2003 and April 2005.It added: "Thorough inquiries were carried out and evidence examined in a bid to progress through the criminal justice process.
According to its website, the role of the CPS is to prosecute criminal cases following investigations by the police and other investigative organisations. It states decisions are made "independently of the police".Both girls, who gave live evidence to the four-day hearing in Goole, East Yorkshire, were described by the panel as "honest and credible" witnesses.
Misconduct panel decisions are taken on the basis of probability, rather than the higher burden of proof needed in criminal trials. "I know that Humberside Police will reflect carefully on what happened in this case and learn lessons about how to address similar cases in the future, as well as redoubling their efforts to ensure they do not happen in the first place."
