Good Afternoon Lorraine,
I hope this email finds you well. Further to our meeting last month I have written to PC G to
give him the opportunity to participate in the reinvestigation, I await his reply. When and if
he replies I shall of course let you know. Regarding a CPS referral, having reviewed the
evidence I am currently of the view that such a referral should be left to the determination of
our Appropriate Authority (A.A. ‐ senior officer who reviews my report) upon the conclusion
of the investigation. As it stands, I see nothing to prohibit such a referral, should the A.A.
think it appropriate. As you know, should the A.A. elect not to refer the matter to the CPS,
you would of course have a right of appeal to the IPCC along those lines. If you have any
questions for me please do let me know.
Kind regards
Jamie Newman | Serious Misconduct Investigation Unit (SMIU) | Directorate of Professional
Standards |

Good Afternoon Lorraine,
Thank you for taking the team to meet with this afternoon, I found our meeting very useful in
enabling me to better understand your complaint. To confirm, the first thing I shall consider
is a referral to the CPS. I shall begin by examining what consideration was given to such a
referral by the previous investigator, Jeannette Riley. Under the legislation that governs
police complaints it is possible to seek guidance from the CPS where there is an indication
that a criminal offence may have been committed, it is this test that I shall apply. Leaving the
CPS issue aside for a moment and the possibility of criminal charges, I acknowledge your
request to have sight of the PC Geoghegan’s MG11 and notebook. Such a disclosure can be
made under Schedule 3 of the Police Reform Act 2002. I shall revisit this request once the
possibility of a CPS referral has been addressed. However, I fully intend to comply with such
a request, subject to necessary redactions. Going forward, in addition your original points of
complaint I shall also attempt to provide a clear explanation for the issues surrounding the
misconduct meeting occurring before you had the opportunity to appeal to the IPCC. As I
stated to you earlier today, the MPS can only apologise for this oversight.
3322,
