The police watchdog has recommended the force’s Directorate of Professional Standards interview an officer who was at Caroline’s 2019 arrest, shortly before she killed herself.
There has finally been a breakthrough in Caroline Flack's mum's campaign for justice after her daughter killed herself months after being charged with the assault of her ex-boyfriend.
He was said to have been involved in the move to overrule the CPS decision to only issue the Love Island host with a caution for attacking Lewis Burton. Christine added: “Something very unusual happened to Carrie at the police station that night, but no one kept a proper record explaining why. "It has left us as a family in a terrible, stressful position. It is time he cleared it up, so we can get some justice for Carrie.”
Prosecutor Alison Wright later said the star should be cautioned. But her decision was appealed by officers and overturned. Christine said that while she “fully appreciates” domestic violence needs to always be taken seriously, the alleged assault involving her daughter was far from that.A review by the IOPC into the circumstances around Caroline’s arrest “did not identify any misconduct” in the Met’s decision to issue charges when it reported findings last February. But it asked police to apologise to her family for the absence of records.
