A POLICEMAN in the UK who preyed on women he met while they were in custody was convicted of two charges of rape and three indecent assaults yesterday.
Constable Stephen Mitchell, 42, of Northumbria Police, had denied all charges against him, claiming the 16 women who complained were liars.
The prosecution had argued he had preyed on heroin addicts, shoplifters and a disabled teenager by offering them help while in custody, then demanding sexual favors afterward.
Mitchell was cleared on Friday of three counts of rape, two indecent assaults and two counts of misconduct in a public office.
But a jury at Newcastle Crown Court convicted him of five other sex offences.
On Tuesday, he was found guilty of six counts of misconduct in a public office, but cleared of six other counts of misconduct and one of ?assault.
