A Midlothian police officer who started a sexual relationship with a teenage girl who made a rape allegation and then begged her to destroy evidence of their contact has been jailed.
PC Gavin Donaldson, 45, was helping to investigate the allegations of sexual assault and domestic abuse made by 17-year-old victim Anisha Yaseen when he took advantage of his position.
The married father-of-one and the vulnerable teen exchanged close to 30,000 messages during their consensual four year romantic relationship.
