Former Glasgow Cop Who Subjected Two Women to 'Horrific Abuse' Jailed for Seven Years
McNee used drugs to render a woman unconscious and was ordered to be monitored for 18 months after release.
- On Monday, the High Court in Glasgow sentenced former police officer Derek McNee to seven years in prison for raping one woman and subjecting another to domestic abuse between 2021 and 2025.
- McNee, who left Police Scotland in 2016, admitted to using drugs to render one victim unconscious while filming sexual assaults on his mobile phone. Prosecutors from the Crown Office and Procurator Fiscal Service detailed his repeated predation.
- Evidence included an electronic stun gun described as an "ultra-high voltage" device hidden in his car. McNee also contacted a second woman nearly 30 times in two days after she changed her phone number.
- Judge David Young KC ordered McNee to be monitored for 18 months upon release and placed him indefinitely on the sex offenders register. The judge told McNee: "As you recognise, there can be no free agreement when someone is incapable to give consent."
- Procurator Fiscal Faye Cook of the COPFS commended the victims' courage, saying their reports enabled prosecutors to hold McNee accountable and help make Scotland a safer place for all.
