A FORMER West Mercia Police Community Support Officer, who was based in Redditch, has been charged with misconduct in public office.

Tom Poole, 37, a PCSO on Redditch Safer Neighbourhood Team was charged with three counts of misconduct in public office.

The charges relate to an investigation into suspected inappropriate relationships with three victims.

The 37-year-old first appeared at Dudley Magistrates Court last month and appeared at Telford Crown Court today (Thursday).

There he pleaded guilty to two counts of misconduct in public office. The charge for the third count of misconduct in public office will not proceed.

He has since resigned from the force.
