A police officer has admitted sexual activity with a teenage girl over the space of a year.
PC Nathan Henderson has since been suspended by Cleveland Police over the 11 offences which took place between July 2024 and July 2025.
The 30-year-old admitted 11 charges of sexual activity with a child, all of which were related to the same girl.
Henderson claimed the relationship with the girl, who was aged 14 or 15 at the time of the offences, had ‘coercive and threatening elements’ when he appeared at Durham crown court via video link from prison.
Sam Faulks, defending, said a basis of plea may be submitted, telling Judge Joanne Kidd: ‘The position is that the defendant accepts that the defence of duress that might have come through in (an) interview is not available to him in law.

‘However, he feels there were certain elements within the relationship that were coercive and threatening, but he would wish to reflect upon disclosure before he advances that.’
Henderson, of Beaconsfield Road, Norton, also admitted perverting the course of justice, saying ‘I don’t remember doing it, but guilty,’ when he was asked for his plea.
He has been remanded in custody until his next appearance at the same court. A date has not yet been set.
