Ex-cop admits computer offences
Kelly Hinds, a response officer based at Sutton who had also worked at Mansfield, admitted six counts of computer misuse and four counts of breaches of data protection. She will be sentenced on 10th April.
Hinds used police computer systems to access information which she passed on to a third party between 2011 and 2013.

Hinds resigned from her post in February.
