RANDY COP'S THREESOME IN POLICE STATION
Met detective jailed for drug-fuelled romps
A DETECTIVE who had sex – including a threesome – with a former suspect while he was on duty has been jailed.
DC Grant McPherson, 37, gave Jessica Lorenzin, 20, herbal viagra and legal highs, which left her feeling like a “zombie” during their sex sessions.
They carried out their affair in hotels, at a spa and even in Notting Hill police station.
The officer met the 20-year-old Albanian student after she was arrested for alleged criminal damage to the door of her home in Earls Court, west London, in October 2015.
They exchanged numbers after he gave her a lift home and the married father-of-one began an affair with her, which lasted until last summer.
Drunk
Their fling came to light after he was arrested over an unrelated matter last August and his WhatsApp messages were recovered.
Last month, McPherson, who has returned to his native Scotland with his wife Sarah and their two-year-old son, admitted misconduct in public office.
He also admitted an offence under the Bail Act after failing to turn up on time – requiring a bench warrant to be issued – because he was drunk.
Two counts of supplying cocaine were dismissed after he claimed he had only given her legal highs.
Judge Martyn Zeidman QC blasted McPherson’s “utterly deplorable behaviour” and for betraying “public trust and confidence” as he jailed him for four months at Snaresbrook Crown Court.
Madeleine Wolfe, prosecuting, said: “She had sex with him at her home, and then again at a spa with another man, in two hotels, and at Notting Hill police station – all whilst he was on duty.
“She describes him providing her and encouraging her to take a white powder, which he said was cocaine.
“She had not tried drugs and describes the effect it had on her in making her feel like a zombie.”
Miss Lorenzin sent him a message in February 2016 saying: “I am sorry, I thought we were in a dating process, not a drug and f**k, with everything I don’t want to do.”
McPherson was caught out after being reported missing by his partner on August 8.
He returned home “drunk and not making an awful lot of sense”.
Defending, David Hughes said the detective had struggled with alcohol problems, anxiety and depression.
