A former North Wales Police officer, Lee Harshey-Jones, admits using his mobile phone to “upskirt” a teenage girl. He also pleads guilty to intending to pervert the course of justice.
The pleas include an account that he factory-sets or resets his phone in an apparent attempt to conceal evidence from criminal investigations. WalesOnline reports the court appearance and the guilty pleas, including the “upskirting” allegation and the additional charge. The Mirror similarly describes the same conduct and emphasizes the sequence: the alleged upskirting using the phone camera, followed by the factory reset aimed at avoiding justice.
While the outlets focus on different phrasing and detail emphasis, both describe the same core facts: the officer’s admission to the upskirting of a teenage girl and his guilty plea related to manipulating his phone to hinder investigators. The matter proceeds through the courts following the guilty pleas.
