The Met needs to 'woman up' and take responsibility, says Baroness Casey
Met officer who shared 'repulsive' photo of men having sex with woman's decapitated body jailed for 42 weeks
Meanwhile officers have also been accused of sharing revenge porn between themselves at work and making light of rape. Ms Vinten said she overheard police officers say 99% of rape cases were regretful sex, and "women would cheat and say it was rape to get out of it".Showing a sense of emotion during a briefing with reporters, Baroness Casey described the need for change at the Metropolitan Police as being a “sense of duty to Londoners”.
She recommended “effectively disbanding PaDP in its current form, ensuring there is an absolute ‘reset’ with a new ethos, identity and a focus on rooting out unacceptable behaviour”. “I think the fact that two of the most high profile and horrific and heinous criminals were in their ranks is enough to make people think, ‘should we rip it up and start again?’
He added in a letter responding to the review: "This report sparks feelings of shame and anger but it also increases our resolve. The Met has already published a draft 'turnaround plan', the final version of which is set to be made public in the spring. "Baroness Casey’s insights, alongside feedback from the public, will greatly influence the next version," Sir Mark said.London mayor Sadiq Khan said: "The evidence is damning.
Labour leader Sir Keir Starmer paid tribute to Baroness Casey for exposing the "utterly toxic" culture in London's police force and called on Home Secretary Suella Braverman to address the report's recommendations. Jack Taylor's sisters Donna and Jenny Taylor said an inquiry is needed to understand "how and why this force is failing people so badly".
