Reformed Bad Cop.

He was a bad cop, but has he learned his lessons and become a reformed character?

"A POLICEMAN banned from driving for doing 136mph is back behind the wheel - nabbing speeding motorists. Northern Constabulary officer Blair McMaster, 31, patrols the streets in a powerful BMW 3 Series. Yet just three years ago he avoided jail and was banned for a year for driving a speedy Subaru Impreza WRX at 136mph while off duty."

He's A Bad Chief Cop.

Trenchant criticism indeed in relation to a Chief Constable, but it seems to Mr Smith that it is not the first time that Chief Latimer has been criticised for his style of policing and yet he still remains in post.

"NORTHERN Constabulary chief constable Ian Latimer has been accused of writing “distorted rubbish alien to the truth” in a letter to a local MSP. The allegation came to light in a report by Jim Martin, the Police Complaints Commissioner for Scotland."

The truth is fundamental to the work of the police, or so you would have thought. Some of the Chief's other press coverage: speeding, inquiry, vehicles.
