She believed that by simply being out walking home, she was doing something wrong, and believed his lie that he had reason to arrest her. For literally nothing. This can't be overlooked, it's illustrative of something really worrying.

Its really sick...everything was wishy washy with regulations you wouldnt really question it would you? especially if she had said she had just left her friends house with a few of her friends.
I hope he pays dearly in Prison...

Why was that his nickname?

I reckon it's lucky he was caught so quick, because If he'd have got away with it, I reckon he'd have struck again.

He made his female colleagues uncomfortable and he had a penchant for violent porn

you don't get a nickname like the rapist unless there has been some very questionable behaviour. The police were also very quick to focus in on him as a suspect. Then once he was caught he was very quick to accept his fate. All of that suggests to me that he was well known for being very dodgy. He shouldnt have been a police officer, and if he wasnt a police officer, he wouldnt have been able to abduct the poor woman in the way that he did.

That says to me that the met were culpable in her murder. What is most worrying to me is that the met chief doesn't seem to be actively doing anything about it, all she has basically said is ... oops the public may have lost trust in us. I think she should be fired immediately

He exposed himself 3 days before the abduction in McDonalds...red flag anyone?

Having a nickname like that I would strongly suspect there's been a sexual misconduct accusation about him before, probably from a co-worker, probably that went nowhere. Entirely conjecture but it sounds like the sort of thing people would say pointedly if they believed he had done something but had "officially" gotten away with it.

The whole story is just revolting. That poor woman, she never had a chance when a man flashes his badge, no one is concerned that the woman is in danger. This is really going to effect how women especially view the Police and being stopped by them

It’s not far off making people physically sick

What I’m finding hard to absorb is he only joined the police in 2018 so in three years he has gone from nothing to carrying a gun.

Alarm bells would be ringing in any ones head let alone those within the police force with a nickname like that.

Like I said above I'm convinced he must have been known amongst other officers to at the very least be behaving inappropriately, but it's either not been reported upwards (not wanting to whistleblow), been ignored by superiors, or it's just been considered "rumours" with nothing concrete. Whichever it is, it's pretty clear other officers suspected he was a risk and that makes the whole story even more troubling.

Cressida Dick has to take responsibility for this, and she clearly isn't. She must resign, and they need to bring in someone that will do what's necessary. Public confidence has been lost, and that can only be rectified by immediate action. Dick has had a couple of months to formulate a plan and she has done **** all about it

[bitontheslide]

Well said
