Yorkshire police officer accused of playing Solitaire instead of looking at rape case CCTV

Humberside Police had been tasked with investigating stranger rapes in North East Lincolnshire, including the rape of a woman attacked by two men as she walked home, in 2015.

But a misconduct hearing was told that one officer, named only as Officer D, watched CCTV footage recovered in the case at an inappropriately high speed - despite expressly being told not to speed it up - and the game Solitaire was seen in his computer's task bar.

Officer D later told bosses that nothing had distracted him from his work.

The officer, who denies three allegations of misconduct, could lose his job if the allegations are proven.
