Top cop resigns after ‘romps in his office with Miss Whiplash dominatrix vampire lover and planning wedding at Dracula’s castle’
Detective Sergeant Stephen Redgewell has left his role in the force after Denise Pearce claimed he was 'obsessed' with sex
A TOP cop has resigned after a vampire loving dominatrix has claimed she had sex with him in his office - and even planned to marry him in Count Dracula’s castle.
Denise Pearce, 52, says she used whips in raunchy encounters with Stephen Redgewell, a Detective Sergeant and treasurer of the Metropolitan Police Federation.
Now reports Redgewell, 52, has quit his role after the pair met in 2015 through notorious dating site Ashley Madison, which is aimed at people in relationships who are looking for affairs.
Redgewell, who helped raise money in memory of Westminster terrorist attack PC Keith Palmer, was already on restricted duties after facing separate allegations about his conduct.
Mum-of-two Denise - who has a £5,000 latex sex costume collection - said their first date was in London’s Covent Garden and it was love at first sight.
“I was convinced he was The One,” she told the paper.
“I’d never felt that way about anyone. Very soon afterwards things became sexual.”
According to the paper, Redgewell sent messages to Denise encouraging him to hook up with him at the Police Federation HQ Bromley, South London.
“We had sex there about seven times. I didn’t consider it wasn’t allowed, I was always too caught up in the moment,” she said.
“We had sex in his office at the Police Federation in the darkness. Sometimes I brought whips. I was definitely more dominant.”
Denise claimed the officer was “obsessed with sex he was” and “could never have gone that long without it”.
Redgewell proposed to her four months into their affair and promised to marry her at Count Dracula’s Castle in Romania in 2020 after showering her with gifts including a skull ring, she says.
She had even picked out a black dress for the wedding.
But they rowed after he refused to leave his partner of 20 years, with whom he has two sons.
She says the officer continued to send texts and pictures to her as their affair continued on-off until it ended for good late last year.
Redgewell was facing allegations sent sexual, racist and homophobic texts between 2015 and 2017 to a female colleague he was meant to be helping in his Federation role.

A Metropolitan Police spokesman said: “I can confirm Steve Redgewell is no longer a police officer.”
Mr Redgewell declined to comment
In a statement, the force had said it made a referral to the Independent Office of Police Conduct in November 2017 after a complaint was made to the Directorate of Professional Standards “regarding the conduct of a serving detective sergeant”.
The IOPC has confirmed that they will independently investigate.
