The widow of PC Andrew Harper, the officer who died after being dragged along a road by a getaway car in Berkshire in August 2019, has said she is ‘utterly shocked and appalled’ after three teenagers were cleared of his murder.
Lissie Harper, who had been married to the police officer for just a month when he was killed, described his death as ‘brutal and senseless’, adding that she had hoped for justice.
Henry Long, 19, the driver, and his passengers, Jessie Cole and Albert Bowers, both 18, were found guilty of manslaughter at the Old Bailey
