Police officer jailed for rape
Who said consensual sex is always legal?
A police officer has been jailed for having consensual sex with a woman, because he was seen as "taking advantage of her", and because it involved emotional abuse and manipulation. The police officer had misused his position, taking advantage of a grieving woman he was assigned to provide emotional support to, and was already married to another woman.
The "victim" was 21 years old.
The police officer, Ian Mynott, was 41 years old, worked for the Kent police.
He has been sentenced to 21 months in prison.

Sounds like he didn't actually do anything illegal, but the authorities are using a very stretched interpretation of existing laws to get him punished, because he did something that is viewed as morally wrong.
