Metropolitan Police officer faces sack ‘after Tasering 10-year-old girl in south London’

I am pleased about his fate, nobody should be getting tasered in their own home, certainly not a ten year old child.

The Met needs to have a word with itself about the attacks on children - and I have used that word because how else can you describe a ten year old being tasered or children being strip searched or held down by two police officers?

 

[equationgirl]

And AGAIN, the CPS is declining to prosecute a charge of using excessive force by the officer. Which makes me ask, what would be excessive force?

West Yorkshire Police’s PC Cameron Lindley, who used excessive force during the restraint of a man in Bradford has been dismissed after the Independent Office for Police Conduct determined he had a case to answer for gross misconduct.

The Independent Office for Police Conduct carried out a review of West Yorkshire Police’s handling of a complaint from a man who was unhappy about the level of force used to arrest him. He alleged that an officer involved, PC Cameron Lindley, had stamped on his head.

While West Yorkshire Police determined the officer should face disciplinary proceedings for potential misconduct, which carries a maximum sanction of a final written warning, the Independent Office for Police Conduct felt that an independently-chaired panel could find his actions amounted to gross misconduct.

That is exactly what happened to PC Cameron Lindley yesterday:

“While the man was face down on the ground, being restrained by two officers, PC Lindley applied force to the man’s head with the sole of his boot,” the Independent Office for Police Conduct said.

I sincerely hope the CPS charges him and doesn't take the easy way on this one. People have gone to prison for stamping on a person's head, this officer should be no exception.

Its seems a bit going through the motions. The family viewed the body cam footage and stepped back from the protest. So possibly justified.

The charge of murder brought against the currently anonymous Metropolitan Police officer, known only as NX121, appears to be justified to those responsible for bringing it.

The lobbying by the Metropolitan Police and the Home Secretary in ongoing criminal proceedings, presumably in an attempt to try and ensure that these proceedings cannot proceed fairly is concerning.

One law 'for them'?

If you choose to apply to do a job where you may shoot and kill someone, accept a job where you may shoot and kill someone, train to do a job where you may shoot and kill someone, and are paid to do a job where you may shoot and kill someone, don't get all huffy teenager if after shooting and killing someone you have to justify it

I think you have eloquently laid out the issue, Mr Cinzano.

It's unconscionable to expect to just shoot someone (often a black/minority/Asian person below the age of 18) without some basic questions being asked.

A serving police officer based at Bournemouth police station “became an animal” as he raped a friend, a court has heard.

Engineers also get a lot of scrutiny, no matter the role, as HSE get involved in any incidents especially if there are fatalities. The latest one that springs to mind was the investigation into the 3 people killed when a ScotRail train was derailed due to a landslip. See also Croydon tram incident.

For firearms officers to be chucking all their toys out of the pram over this is beyond ridiculous, considering how people have been shot.

Those firearms officers handing in their tickets clearly believe they are above the law and/or have no faith in the justice system if they truly believe that their colleague did not commit murder.

Yesterday, the Metropolitan Police's former PC Daniel Humphreys of Chipstead Valley Road, Coulsdon, appeared before Westminster Magistrates’ Court charged with two counts of misconduct in public office.

Former PC Daniel Humphreys is charged with misconduct in a public office in that it is alleged that between July 4 2019 and November 21 2021, while acting as a Metropolitan Police officer, former PC Daniel Humphreys engaged in an inappropriate personal relationship with a vulnerable female who he had met while investigating an alleged domestic incident in which she was the complainant.

The second charge alleges that between July 4 2019 and November 21 2021 while acting as a Metropolitan Police officer former PC Daniel Humphreys obtained information from the Metropolitan Police Service computer systems for a non-policing purpose and shared the information with a person who was not a police officer.

PC Daniel Humphreys, who was based at the Metropolitan Police's central north command, was placed on restricted duties in June 2022 and has since resigned. He has was given bail until his next court appearance at Southwark Crown Court on 23 October 2023.
