Spycop who slept with four women while undercover admits his actions were wrong and inappropriate
Protesters blockade New Scotland Yard, London, as they called for a judge-led inquiry into the use of undercover policing in 2011
AN UNDERCOVER officer who slept with four women while infiltrating protest groups admitted to a public inquiry today that his actions were wrong and inappropriate.
The ex-cop, who used the cover name Vince Miller during his deployment in the 1970s, conceded that had the women known his true identity they would not have had sex with him.
He did not use contraception with the women or consider the risk of pregnancy, the public inquiry into undercover policing heard.
