Peter Boatman was a former British police officer who worked as a consultant to, amongst others, the Youth Justice Board. He was found dead, in a suspected suicide, in his home on 1st October 2010.[1]

His company, Pro-Tect Systems, was formerly the only authorised importer of Taser devices to Britain. The Sunday Times has claimed that he had a 50% stake in the company while creating the first British police training programme for their use.[2] Their license was revoked as a result of irregularities found during the investigation into the death of Raoul Moat.
