A driver alleged to have been raped at the roadside by an off-duty Special Constable has said she no choice but to answer his “aggressive” questions after he twice produced his warrant card.
The woman told Wolverhampton Crown Court she was left “numb and disgusted” and had not consented to sexual activity with volunteer Metropolitan Police officer Paul Hoile, who appeared to be drunk.
Shielded from Hoile’s view and the public gallery by a curtain, the woman told the court: “I asked ‘could I see your badge or your ID’. Asked by Caroline Goodwin KC, prosecuting, why she had answered Hoile’s questions, the woman said: “I had no choice. He is a police officer. I felt like I had to.” Asked to recall Hoile’s manner before the alleged rapes, she said he had been “loud, annoyed, very unprofessional for a police officer … more like a drunk.”As they walked towards the scene of the alleged assaults, the woman said Hoile, who was stumbling, remained very aggressive and domineering and “had made up his mind and that’s what was happening”.
Prosecutors claim Hoile abused and was “hiding behind” his police powers in speaking to the woman as she prepared to drive away from him.
