The case dates back to an incident that occurred during a night out in Maidstone in January 2023. During this night, PC Slade committed sexual assault by touching five victims without their consent in a sexual manner. These serious allegations led to his suspension by the police force in February 2023, within just 72 hours of his arrest by Kent Police.
