Officer jailed for having sex with rape victim in toilet



 A police officer has been jailed for 22 months for having sex with a rape victim several times and in a McDonald’s toilet.

33-year-old Charlotte Peters, from Luton, was based in the Sexual Offences Exploitation and Child Abuse Command in the Metropolitan Police when she had a relationship with a young female victim she’d been assigned to help.

Judge Anthony Leonard at Southwark Crown Court, sentenced her after she previously pleaded guilty to misconduct in public office.

Prosecuting officer, Kate Bex, said Peters was in a position of trust and should have known how to deal with the ’emotional impact’ on victims of sexual assault.


The court heard that the first sexual contact which started with a kiss on February 24 at the refuge where the victim was staying developed into several sexual encounters including the final one they had in McDonald’s toilet.
