Carrick last month denied 20 sex offences against four women.

He was first charged in October with raping one woman after they shared drinks in the town.

The cop, who was off-duty at the time, then allegedly raped the woman at a Premier Inn.

Three more women came forward following his first court appearance and he was charged with 19 additional offences.

He allegedly falsely imprisoned one woman in a cupboard under the stairs and sexually assaulted three of the complainants by urinating on them.

The 29 counts he is now facing are 13 counts of rape, five counts of sexual assault, three counts of assault by penetration and three counts of coercive and controlling behaviour between 2009 and 2020.

He is also charged with two counts of false imprisonment, one count of attempted rape, one count of attempted sexual assault by penetration and one count of causing a person to engage in sexual activity without consent.

The cop, from Stevenage, Herts, allegedly carried out the attacks while a serving officer.

Until his arrest, Carrick had been based within the Met Police’s Parliamentary and Diplomatic Protection Command.

It is the same department where Sarah Everard's murderer Wayne Couzens worked but it is unclear if they were in the unit at the same time.
