Is the Metropolitan Police institutionally corrupt?

Some good news. What a farce.

Prosecutors have dramatically halted attempts by the Metropolitan police to criminalise people for attending the vigil for Sarah Everard in another humiliating blow for Britain’s biggest force. The Crown Prosecution Service (CPS) notified lawyers last week that it had “discontinued” attempts by the police to criminalise six protesters as it was not in the public interest.

In fairness, the Police present a case to the CPS who then decide to prosecute or not. The CPS should have stopped this ages ago.

The issue of oppressive Policing still needs to be addressed - dream on.
 
The Metropolitan police have apologised more than two years after an insurance underwriter sitting in his car outside his home was handcuffed, injured, strip searched and detained in a cell by officers looking for cannabis. No drugs were found on Tariq Stanley, 30, who believes his race was the reason he was targeted. He said he was left traumatised and suffered injuries to his shoulder and left wrist, which was in a splint for two months.

Stanley sued after an inquiry by the Met cleared officers of wrongdoing. The Met paid £22,500 damages and his costs, before the case alleging assault and false imprisonment reached court.
...
Stanley is the fifth young black man in recent weeks to obtain damages from the Met after being searched for drugs without any being found, at a cost of hundreds of thousands of pounds to the force.

I'm shocked to be surprised that he could get away with this for so long. How are we supposed to have any trust in "The Thin (sic) Blue Line?"
 
We're told that they're rotten apples but, as we all know, one rotten apple in a bag will rot all the others too.

Those supposed to be managing these officers must be rotten too, again no surprise when the putrescence extends to the Home Sec, PM and most of Parliament .

The fact remains it was only 18 months ago, in July 2021, after the murder of Sarah Everard, that Carrick faced an earlier claim of rape. He was arrested, but the Met did not view it as sufficiently serious to suspend him from duty.

Sad fact is the Met has a misogynist culture and doesn't view rape and sexual assault against women as serious crimes - and we see the result.
