The two North Yorkshire Police officers shared the messages on WhatsApp, a misconduct panel hears.
By Chloe LaversuchRacist WhatsApp messages shared by two police officers were found when one gave in their phone as part of another inquiry, a hearing has been told.
The misconduct panel in Northallerton heard that Ms Kirby signed a consent form to allow officers to look through her phone while they were investigating allegations she had made against another police officer in a separate case in March 2020. However, the misconduct panel heard that during that investigation, officers had discovered several racist Whatsapp messages sent by Ms Kirby and Mr Mills between 2 December 2018 and 8 March 2019.
Mr Summers argued that the messages had been "obtained unlawfully" by police and that misconduct proceedings should not proceed further.
