A police worker accessed confidential data systems to check up on two of her ex-partners. Helen Millington, 55, worked for Cheshire Police as a communications supervisor at the Northwest Motorway Patrol Group Regional Control Centre, based in Newton-Le-Willows, and joined the force in August, 1991.
The Crown Prosecution Service has revealed she pleaded guilty to using police data systems to check up on ex-partners and their family members. The CPS said Millington, of Westbrook in Warrington, illegally accessed the data systems on numerous occasions between April and August, 2021.
In October 2021, the force's counter corruption unit received information she had been accessing the police national computer to check on the whereabouts of her ex-partner's vehicle.
