Steve Yates

Steve Yates is a detective serving the Carrigstown area of Dublin. He is widely regarded as the cooler of the two resident detectives. He received a suspension from the force due to his sexual relations with Carrigstown tramp Carol Foley in 2018. The force made it clear that carrying on in a relationship with an ex of Billy Meehan was completely unacceptable. It was at this stage that Steve decided to trade Carol in for a younger model - Hayley Collins. Despite a 30 year age gap, the pair's romance is not deemed in any way sleezy because it suits the Carrigstown Agenda whereby empowered younger women inhabit Carrigstown.
