A Woman detective has been sacked for gross misconduct and put on a blacklist alongside killer and rapist officers after calling out her force’s woke ideology.

Detective Constable Rachel Fletcher, 49, was reported by male colleagues for saying ‘c**ks in frocks’ to denounce Northumbria Police guidelines which permit biological men who identify as women to insist on being strip-searched by a female officer.

Ms Fletcher, a single mother-of-two, had been pivotal in ensuring Ross Jackson, a prolific paedophile, was caught and jailed for 23 years in Newcastle in February.

But the veteran child protection and family liaison officer was then shocked at being fired last month.

Northumbria Police said she had brought it into disrepute with comments about men that were ‘sexist, inappropriate and offensive’ – plus the single ‘transphobic’ remark.

She has been barred from policing after working her way up from a civilian post to become a detective in a 20-year career.

All officers guilty of gross misconduct are on a blacklist. It includes ex-Met Police officers Wayne Couzens, who murdered Sarah Everard, and serial rapist David Carrick.

Male colleagues told a disciplinary panel they were ‘offended’ when they overheard Ms Fletcher joking with a female officer that all men should be on a 9pm curfew to stop night-time sex attacks.

Ms Fletcher was also allegedly heard saying, at Gateshead police station, that ‘all men are rapists’. She insists she said ‘all rapists are men’. She said: ‘Offending colleagues does not make me a danger to the public, yet my name is now on a list with rapists and murderers.’

Northumbria’s Chief Constable Vanessa Jardine until recently held the LGBTQ portfolio on the National Police Chiefs Council and drafted the trans treatment guidance.

Former Olympic swimmer Baroness Davies, co-founder of the Women’s Sports Union, said woke police forces were ‘destroying their public credibility’. Former South Wales Police Superintendent Cathy Larkman, director of the Women’s Rights Network, added: ‘This is a modern-day public witch burning.’

Ms Fletcher is claiming unfair dismissal. The Northumbria force refused to comment yesterday.
