A WOMAN cop has been suspended after colleagues discovered she was working as a hooker.

The WPC, 28, offers her services as a £100-an-hour escort on a website.

She was one of eight women and six men arrested by officers investigating prostitution and police corruption across Greater Manchester, Northumberland, Cleveland, Co Durham and the Scottish Borders.

The cop, a member of the Northumbria force, is one of the so-called Notorious Girls on a website run by Neil Lock and wife Natalie.

The WPC is believed to be a hazel-eyed brunette who features on the site with the working name Kelly — but with her face blanked out.

A source said: “It is amazing that a serving officer got mixed up in this. She must have known she was gambling with her career.


Satisfaction

"If she is found guilty in a court or of an internal disciplinary offence then she is finished. She could never work as an officer again.”

The site boasts: “The Notorious Girls offer the finest value for money. Your satisfaction is guaranteed!!!”

The girls pay £117.50 a week to be registered on the site.

Their charges range from £50 for half an hour to £1,650 for two girls for 24 hours.

Bentley-driving Mr Lock and his wife, both 27, live in a villa in Galashiels, Selkirkshire, with their two young children.

They insist they are not acting illegally. They claim payments to the escorts are for “companionship” only and anything else is “a matter of choice between two or more consulting adults”.

Northumbria Police said of the investigation: “We can confirm that one of those arrested is a serving woman officer.”
