PC Gordon Semple 'dissolved in acid bath' on Grindr date

A sado-masochist obsessed with Breaking Bad strangled a police officer then copied a plot from the hit American drama by dissolving his body in an acid bath, a court heard. PC Gordon Semple, 59, was on duty when he arranged to meet his alleged killer Stefano Brizzi on the gay dating app Grindr for "hot, dirty, sleazy" sex on 1 April this year. A resident alerted police on 7 April and officers found Brizzi at his flat wearing only sunglasses and underpants.
