Scott Chilton, a former chief constable of Hampshire Constabulary, has been accused of gross misconduct involving sexual relationships with two officers, including allegations of sex on duty. According to reporting, Chilton retired last year after a police watchdog announced he was under investigation for the allegations. The accounts say the probe centers on whether Chilton’s conduct breached professional standards and involved inappropriate relationships with serving officers.
The reports also state that Chilton received a £50,000 “compensation” payment as part of the circumstances surrounding his departure from the force. Details of the payment’s basis and whether it relates to any formal disciplinary or settlement process are not provided in the material summarized here.
Across the sources, the core points remain consistent: Chilton served for 33 years, retired last year, and faces investigation for alleged sexual relationships with two officers connected to allegations of conduct on duty. The allegations have not been described as proven in the provided excerpts, and the status of the investigation is not specified beyond the announcement of an inquiry.
