The ex-cop, from Dumfries, retired through ill health in 2017 and launched a sex discrimination claim against Police Scotland
A female police officer claims she was left “in a constant state of worry and paranoia” after making a bullying claim against a fellow officer. Karen Harper, who served as an officer for 22 years, was probed by Police Scotland over a criminal complaint after making the bullying claims.
She was off duty when she was said to have shouted at a youngster after getting involved in a row between him and her ten-year-old son. The investigation saw fellow officers visiting 15 of her neighbours to ask about her. Her ex-husband was also asked if he wished to make a criminal complaint about her.
At the end of the hearing, employment tribunal judge Mark Whitcombe said he would reach a decision on compensation next week. At an earlier hearing the tribunal found Parker had been victimised by her boss Sergeant Doug Bell because she lodged a bullying complaint against him.
