A former Police Community Support Officer has been bailed after it was alleged she stabbed herself to seek compensation, claiming she had been attacked.
Olivia Morphew, 24, appeared at Westminster Magistrates' Court on Wednesday morning accused of perverting the course of justice, fraud and possession of a knife in a public place. Wearing a jacket and a white shirt, Morphew, who worked as a PCSO in Elmbridge, Surrey, spoke to confirm her name and address.
It follows an investigation into an incident in Esher, Surrey, in June 2022 when PCSO Morphew reported being stabbed. The Independent Office for Police Conduct said it was alleged that she stabbed herself and submitted a compensation claim for her injuries.
