Yet another driver caught tooled up by a cyclist
 

Oh dear - caught in PUBLIC again with a schoolgirl this time.
Note the usual wriggling in court.

QUOTE:
"A former police community support officer, convicted of masturbating behind the wheel as he watched a teenage girl walking down a street, has been spared jail.

Instead, former soldier Kelvin Mackenzie (49), of Cowfield Gould, Holbeach, was made subject of a community order. He had pleaded not guilty at Crown Court to committing an act which outraged public decency, claiming it simply wasn't him or his car but he was found guilty after a trial last month.

Sentencing him today (Tuesday), Judge Christopher Morgan imposed a 12-month community order with 100 hours' unpaid work and ordered him to pay £1,000 costs.

The judge told Mackenzie: "What was in your mind that day, despite your constant denials, I simply cannot comprehend.

"Whether it was, as suggested by the Crown, simply an exercise of your inherent belief in the office of a police community support officer and the power and responsibility which goes with that and your knowledge how you thought you might get away with it, I simply don't know.

"You were of good character and this has had disastrous consequences on your employment and on your relationship." The court heard that Mackenzie, who had been suspended, has now lost his job. He had been a full-time PCSO since 2005.

The jury was told that a cyclist saw Mackenzie committing the act through an open window of a red Renault Megane at 4.50pm on 30 July 2014 as it slowly passed him in Faircross Way, St Albans.

At the time there was a teenage girl walking on the pavement and the car driver appeared to be "fixed" on her.

In his defence, Mackenzie said he was on his way home to Holbeach and his route took him close to Faircross Way but he didn't drive down it. He suggested the witness had made a mistake in the registration number he wrote down or that it might have been cloned.

Mackenzie, a soldier in Northern Ireland in his early 20s, moved to Holbeach in November 2012 and had arranged a transfer to Cambridgeshire as a PCSO to be closer to his new home when the allegation was made and he was suspended.

Mitigating, Raj Joshi told the judge Mackenzie had now lost his job. His wife, although supportive, was suffering from a depressive disorder. The conviction had ruined whatever thoughts he had of a career in the police service.

"It's a matter of shame and regret for him," he said."

Sounds a bit like the old' call a taxi and say the driver molested your

On the 'evidence' mentioned I am surprised that there was a conviction.

"Witness Adam Barnes, about to go out on a cycle ride at 4.50pm on July 30, 2014, said he saw the driver through an open window of a red Renault Megane, as it slowly passed him in Faircross Way, St Albans.

"When he drew level I could see that he was struggling. I assumed he was trying to put his seat belt in but as I looked in the window I could see what he was doing.

"The passenger window was open. I saw his penis in his hand. It was erect. He was going up and down with his right hand. His left hand was on the steering wheel.

"He was looking straight ahead. There was a girl walking along on my side of the pavement, about 16-17, slim, wearing a skirt," the witness told the jury.

Prosecutor Alex Rooke said the driver appeared to be "fixed" on the young girl.

Giving evidence, Mackenzie, a full-time PCSO since 2005, said his car was not in Faircross Way at any stage on that day. "I didn't commit this offence."

He had finished his shift at St Albans police station at 4.30pm and was leaving the city for his two-hour journey home.. His route took him close to Faircross Way but he did not drive down it. He had moved to Cowfield Gould, Holbeach, in November 2012.

He suggested that the witness had made a mistake in the registration number he wrote down, that the number might be very similar to his, or cloned."

Yes - the reported evidence does seem a bit thin for a conviction. However, the explanation given by former PCSO Mackenzie suggests that there is evidence which has not been reported. Why else would he claim that his number plate had been cloned?

An obvious wriggle by the driver who who was trying to squirm his way out of the offence.

Obvious to the jury, clearly. But not so obvious on the reported evidence - one person's word against that of another. It is not difficult to imagine a situation where someone might be coerced into giving false evidence against a PCSO.
