A COP is suing his police force over a “corrupt” probe into his fiancée’s station sex romps – amid claims the top detective sent to investigate the alleged misconduct later MARRIED the woman.
In a real-life Line of Duty plot that has rocked North Wales Police, heartbroken detective Andrew Fearon was due to wed fellow officer Detective Constable Rebecca Hutt.
But just four months before their wedding day, he claims he caught his bride-to-be red-handed in a sordid love affair with colleague Shaun Parry, also a Detective Constable.
It’s claimed the pair conducted their relationship at the St Asaph Divisional HQ in Denbighshire, where they were both based, while Fearon was stationed at Menai Bridge 40 miles away.
Fuming Fearon filed a blistering gross misconduct complaint to North Wales Police, claiming the illicit romps were happening right under the noses of bosses on police premises.
He even levelled shock claims of domestic violence, fraud, and coercive control against his cheating partner.

An investigation into Hutt was launched in 2017, but in a bombshell claim, Fearon alleges that the probe was “corrupt” and quietly shelved – because the senior cop leading it was also sleeping with his fiancée.
To add insult to injury, Detective Superintendent Steve Williams, later married Hutt.
Nine years on, Fearon is taking legal action against the force.
He is suing North Wales Police for £200,000 in damages for personal injury, and another £144,000 for loss of earnings.
He alleges that the “corruption” he endured has caused him to face financial ruin and “psychiatric injury” and says there has been no justice.
Details of the extraordinary case emerged in documents lodged at the High Court in Liverpool.
‘Not disciplined’
It’s claimed in court papers that officers “conspired” to bury Fearon’s misconduct complaint by simply moving DC Parry to another nearby police station, rather than disciplining him.
The court documents say: “They [Parry and Hutt] conducted an intimate relationship on the premises. Instead of being properly addressed as a disciplinary matter, Parry was relocated from St Asaph to Wrexham.
“Parry was a known sexual predator, and the defendant’s officers conspired to ensure that he was not disciplined for his sexual activity with RH [Hutt].”
Fearon was off work for four months due to the stress of the scandal and also asked his force to investigate his separate allegations against Hutt for coercive control, domestic violence, and fraud in November 2017.
At this point, senior cop Williams was brought on to investigate the claims.
Williams concluded that no further action should be taken against DC Hutt and she was allowed to remain in her post.
Det Supt Williams had used his rank to influence the outcome of the investigation in favour of Ms Hutt.
Court papers
But Fearon claims that while investigating Hutt, Williams also embarked on a sexual relationship with her.
The court papers claim: “Det Supt Williams had used his rank to influence the outcome of the investigation in favour of Ms Hutt.”
Fearon was left furious when he discovered the truth and requested an external force investigate the case, but this was denied, and he subsequently resigned.
Williams married Hutt in 2022 and has now retired from the force, while she is still a serving officer.
Meanwhile, Parry was sacked from the force in 2019 over separate allegations of “inappropriate behaviour” with another female colleague.
Fearon’s case is due to be heard in a Liverpool court in July.
His solicitor, David Miers, said: “Mr Fearon’s case centres on North Wales Police’s failure to undertake an impartial investigation in light of the alleged offences and the relationships Ms Hutt was having with other officers.
“The failure to do that left Mr Fearon feeling isolated and unsupported, which ultimately resulted in a very serious psychiatric injury.”
Williams, who lives in Colwyn Bay with Hutt, denied the claims and insists he was not having an affair with Hutt at the time of the investigation. Hutt declined to comment.
Parry, who also lives in Colwyn Bay, also declined to comment.
North Wales Police said: “As the matters referred to are currently subject to active legal proceedings, with a trial scheduled to take place in July, it would be inappropriate for us to comment at this time.”
