Chief Superintendent Daniel Greenwood, 41, of West Yorkshire Police, resigned amid allegations of gross misconduct for engaging in an illicit sexual relationship with probationary officer Caitlin Howarth, 24, who was 17 years his junior. The relationship began in 2020, during which Greenwood, responsible for enforcing Covid regulations, breached lockdown rules to have sexual encounters with Howarth, who he helped recruit into the force. Evidence presented at a disciplinary hearing revealed that Greenwood exploited the power dynamics inherent in their age and rank difference, with sexually explicit messages exchanged between them. Howarth has faced her own allegations, including a relationship with a drug dealer, although charges against her were recently dropped. Greenwood's resignation came just before the hearing, which would have likely resulted in his dismissal. The case raises serious concerns about misconduct and abuse of power within the police force.
