A police officer who lied about being the victim of domestic abuse at the hands of her ex-lover and force colleague has avoided being sent to prison
PC Amanda Aston, 43, of Surrey Police had reported false allegations of control and abuse against former Sergeant Matt Taylor, in February 2017, to her colleagues.
Her cruel lies led to him being dismissed from his job and serving two months in prison for breaching bail conditions which Aston had herself encouraged him to do, and then reported him.
