A Wiltshire Police officer’s failure to process Clare’s Law requests left at least three women at risk, prompting an apology and reforms.
A Wiltshire Police staff member, Gavin Hudson, was found guilty of gross misconduct for failing to properly process Clare’s Law applications, leading to 33 failures among 3,778 cases and leaving at least three women at increased risk of violence, including one who survived a stabbing by her partner.
Hudson, who resigned before disciplinary action concluded, neglected to check police records despite warning signs, denying women vital safety information.
The Independent Office for Police Conduct found poor management contributed to the failures, which followed prior warnings in 2019 and 2020.
Wiltshire Police Chief Constable Catherine Roper apologized, acknowledging a breach of public trust and confirming leadership changes and stricter oversight have been implemented to prevent future lapses.
