Crime boss Caroline Henry has laid bare the intense personal pain she was going through when she was clocked five times for speeding. The 52-year-old, from Giltbrook, has spoken exclusively to Nottinghamshire Live - not to evoke any sympathy - but in an emotional bid to put into context the terrible and traumatic feelings she had been coping with, and still endures, as she supports her two children as a devoted mum.
Mrs Henry, the Nottinghamshire Police and Crime Commissioner, faced a district judge at Nottingham Magistrates' Court on Monday, July 18, after pleading guilty to speeding five times - twice on Oxclose Lane, Arnold - and was hit with a hefty fine amounting to £2,450, prosecution costs, a victim surcharge of £190, and 15 penalty points on her licence.
Despite her lawyer arguing exceptional circumstances, due to her children's medical needs, she still lost her licence and has been banned from the roads for six months. After the court hearing, she was back at her desk doing the job she loves at the Arnold Lodge Police HQ, from where she opened up for the first time about the deep pain she was going through at the time of the offences.
