A Scottish police officer, Alan Greer, is accused of rape and of trying to murder women, according to reporting that also reviews his earlier conduct.
The outlets say Greer was allowed to join the police despite criminal-behaviour concerns on his record. It is reported that he was investigated by police in 2002 and again in 2005 for making inappropriate phone calls to women. One of those matters allegedly resulted in him receiving a formal police caution.
Across the provided articles, the focus is on the apparent gap between earlier investigations and later allegations involving Greer. The reporting describes what is said to be two separate incidents of inappropriate phone contact and notes that a caution was issued, raising questions about how vetting and internal handling of prior allegations took place.
