DI Drake

DI Drake investigated the murder of Carl King in October 2012. Drake questioned Debbie Dingle, her father Cain and Cameron Murray about their whereabouts when the murder took place, but all had alibis. Drake later questioned Jimmy King when DS Shawcross arrested him after being told about the fight by Bob Hope between Carl and Jimmy. Drake used this information to establish Jimmy a motive, but was forced to let Jimmy go when he didn't even know how Carl was killed. Drake questioned Chas Dingle when she confessed to killing Carl, telling him that she confronted Carl as he was blackmailing her and she struck him with a brick in self-defence. When Chas's wedding band was found next to Carl's body, Chas was charged.
In December 2012, Cameron (the real culprit) began to feel guilty and tried to get Chas off the hook. Drake didn't believe him as he didn't have any evidence to back up his claims.
Eighteen years after playing Charlie Aindow, David Fleeshman played DI Drake.
