UK: Police trio deny misconduc
Three Northamptonshire police officers have appeared in court accused of misconduct after allegedly threatening to plant incriminating evidence on a teenager they had arrested.
Constables Stephen Eaton, 49, William Docherty, 42, and Sean Holditch, also 42, each face one charge of misconduct in a public office over their handling of a 16-year-old boy they had arrested for breaching his bail conditions.
The three officers, all based at Campbell Square police station, appeared at Northampton Crown Court on Friday, where they entered not guilty pleas to the charge.
It is alleged that, on November 24, 2006, between them the officers did not take (the teenager) to a police station as soon as reasonably practicable; used incapacitant spray in circumstances which were not justified; made threats to harm; made an inappropriate search of property; made a false pocketbook entry; caused a police sergeant to make an incorrect entry in the custody log; made a threat to fabricate evidence.
All three officers, who are currently suspended from duty on full pay, were released on bail until their trial at a date to be fixed next year.
The trial is due to last eight days.
The charges came out of an investigation by the police watchdog, the Independent Police Complaints Commission, after it was alleged there was a three-hour delay between the teenager's arrest and his transfer into custody.
