Charles Vaughan

__NOTOC__
Charles Vaughan, an old friend of Tom King and the superintendent of Hotten Police Station, investigated Tom's kidnap at the hands of Cain Dingle and Sadie King. Tom later chose Vaughan as his best man for his Christmas Day wedding to Rosemary Sinclair. Tom was murdered on his wedding day and after his death Vaughan became close to Rosemary. Tom's son, Matthew King, makes an unofficial complaint to DCI Grace Barraclough, about their closeness. Barraclough then spoke to Vaughan, who realised that she should have a professional relationship only with Rosemary.
He gets involved in April 2008 when Donna Windsor-Dingle makes a complaint about PC Shane Doyle. He advised Donna not to make a formal complaint as it might affect her career. Shane was murdered in December 2008 by his girlfriend Jasmine Thomas and Vaughan ordered Donna, Andrew Drake and Charlotte Beecham to search Shane's flat for evidence. Shane's body was later found in a local lake. Early the next month, he attended Matthew's funeral.
