A former police officer has admitted to multiple sexual assaults on a night out. Former police constable Mark Slade assaulted five victims by touching them without their consent on a night out in Maidstone, Kent, in January this year.

Slade, 48, was based at the West Mercia Police headquarters in Hindlip, Worcestershire, at the time of the offences. He pleaded guilty to five counts of sexual assault by touching at Maidstone Magistrates’ Court on Monday, the force said, and will be sentenced at the town’s Crown Court on a date to be confirmed.
