Evan Potter sent the rape victim more than 2,000 messages in 15 days and met her in secluded places.
A police officer has been sacked after he formed an inappropriate emotional relationship with a rape victim.
Evan Potter, 52, sent over 2,000 messages in 15 days to a woman he had been assigned to support, according to the Independent Office for Police Conduct . The Kent officer also met the woman in secluded places a number of times, including a supermarket car park."PC Potter's relationship with the woman was intense," said Mel Palmer, regional director of the IOPC, which led the investigation.On one occasion, it appeared Potter was encouraging the victim to relive the rape while talking to her as if he were the perpetrator, the IOPC said.
The gross misconduct hearing on Monday found that the police constable had failed to act appropriately in his role and failed to safeguard the woman.Ms Palmer said: "From the start of their police service, officers are made fully aware that trying to form inappropriate relationships with members of the public who they deal with through their professional duties, particularly those in vulnerable positions as victims of crime, is completely unacceptable.
