The actions of a police officer jailed for sleeping with a woman he was supposed to be investigating were 'deplorable'.Former West Mercia Police officer Nicholas Peacock was jailed for 18 months after admitting one charge of misconduct in public office.
The court was told that between February and April 2022, Peacock engaged in a sexual relationship with a suspect in an assault case he was investigating. The allegations came to light on April 22, 2022, and West Mercia Police said Peacock was immediately suspended. Reacting to Peacock's sentence, Temporary Deputy Chief Constable Rachel Jones, said: “The dishonesty and lack of integrity shown by Nicholas Peacock is deplorable. He abused his power as a police officer, and in the process totally undermined the trust which the victim had placed in him to investigate the case fairly and impartially.
