Another Devon and Cornwall policeman is let off following a rape trial.
PC Jamie Gilbert was accused of four charges of rape against a Callington women and was suspended in June 2007 (no doubt on full pay!). It has taken over a year for the case to come to court and still Gilbert’s suspension will continue until it is discovered if there will be any misconduct proceedings against him.
Gilbert claims that the rape claims were fictitious.
Last month another Devon and Cornwall policeman walked free from court after being caught speeding and then tried to cover it up using police equipment.
It seems that Devon and Cornwall police officers are virtually immune from prosecution. Moreover they get paid to stay at home while their crimes are investigated.
