An army of more than 270 volunteers have come forward to support independent Police and Crime Commissioner candidate Mike Rees. The former police officer from Malmesbury investigated the murders of Swindon women Becky Godden-Edwards and Sian O’Callaghan. He has promised a fresh probe into killer Christopher Halliwell should he be elected to the role after the Wiltshire and Swindon PCC election on August 19. Dubbed ‘Mike’s Army’ volunteers lined up when it became clear that there would have to be a second election – costing £1.4m – after the barring of May s winner Jonathon Seed. Mr Rees, who now runs his own business, decided to stand again after polling more than 31,000 votes last time and his supporters have also raised almost £7,000 to fund leaflets, banners and posters.
