On Wednesday, December 7, 2022, Leeds Magistrates’ Court bailed Duncanson before he appears at Leeds Crown Court in January 2023. He worked on a neighbourhood policing team in Doncaster and has been suspended from duties, with an internal misconduct investigation underway alongside his criminal proceedings.
