The trial of four men on charges of misconduct in public office has concluded today (Friday 4 August 2017) at Sheffield Crown Court.
The four men charged were Lee Walls and Matthew Lucas, both officers with South Yorkshire Police. The other two defendants were Matthew Loosemore and Malcolm Reeves, of the National Police Air Service.
All four men were acquitted.
Below is our statement on the outcome of the hearings.
“Adrian Pogmore was dismissed from South Yorkshire Police in 2015, following an internal misconduct investigation.
“Pogmore, who pleaded guilty to misconduct in public office on 18 July 2017, will return to Sheffield Crown Court for sentencing on Tuesday 8 August.
“Not with standing today’s verdicts concerning the four defendants who were acquitted, we will now continue with misconduct proceedings internally against the other South Yorkshire Police officers. We cannot comment further at this stage, so as not to prejudice any future misconduct hearings.”
