Northern Ireland Policing Board 18/1/2023 Report Is it time to break up the Met? Danny Shaw: "This is the best of the Met: never letting up, pursuing criminals, using a range of techniques to solve the most complex of crimes. Over the years, I’ve met officers who’ve carried out investigations like these; their professionalism, dedication to duty and integrity have always stood out. Which is why I am struggling to understand how a police force which is capable of doing so much good can get it so catastrophically wrong, as it did with David Carrick: the police officer who has admitted dozens of rape and sexual offences against 12 women over two decades."

Surrey OPCC 18/1/2023 News Professionalism in Policing: Minding the Gaps Lucy D'Orsi QPM: This week, I am angry. Angry as another high-profile case of a police officer abusing his position to hurt women in such a calculated way, darkens the news. I won’t repeat the sentiments of my colleagues. David Carrick was a criminal with a warrant card. But it’s easy to say he wasn’t one of us. He was. And that’s why it feels so shameful that he was free to abuse women for so long without the alarm bells being heard. At times like this, I find myself awake at night wondering how we can strengthen our approach, stopping the likes of PC Carrick from the very moment an allegation is made.

Carrick flew under the radar because opportunities to join the dots on his horrendous behaviour were missed. Vetting didn’t happen, allegations were dismissed, and incidents were treated in isolation. I commend the victims in this case for their bravery in coming forward and apologise that more wasn’t done. But the time has run out on policing’s apologies, and we must act decisively to bring about change. Women should be able to trust that if they report an officer or staff member for wrongdoing they will be listened to, and action will be taken. The Times - Subscription at source 18/1/2023 Feature, Opinion David Carrick: every officer to be checked against police databases Every police officer in the country will be checked against national policing databases to root out anyone who has “slipped through the net” in the wake of the David Carrick scandal, the home secretary said today. Suella Braverman said the aim was to detect any officers or members of staff who were unfit to serve but had benefited from vetting failings. She said that police vetting obligations would be made “stronger and clearer” after Carrick was allowed to join the Metropolitan Police in 2001 even though he was a suspect in a domestic incident the previous year.
