It was the only job Sarah De Meulemeester ever wanted.
The 26-year-old was described as a 'great asset to Greater Manchester Police', who 'lived and breathed' being a police officer. But in the words of Judge David Aubrey KC: "All that is now at an end."
PC De Meulemeester was behind the wheel of one of three GMP cars responding to a 'grade one emergency' in Stockport on December 26, 2020. She made a reckless choice to drive dangerously - and beyond her capabilities in the force.
