Is It Really 'Shocking' By Now?

Another one:
A Metropolitan Police officer has been sacked without notice after being convicted of sexually assaulting a child at a party.
In another shocking case involving a serving police officer, the Met said a misconduct hearing found PC Farhan Ghadiali had breached the standards of professional behaviour in relation to discreditable conduct.
No reference to being a 'poster boy' with this one though.

It doesn't seem to be getting any better. This is from 2019.

When I joined the Police many years ago,I was positively vetted and all my references were checked. At interview they reminded me of things I had been involved in that I had long forgotten about.Does no one check any more?

My London is a rich seam of reports of criminal behaviour by officers of the Metropolitan Police in the past week.
This one was a Detective Inspector.

That's a long time to have rotten apples mouldering in the barrel...

"Does no one check any more?"

It's probably against their human rights...

"This one was a Detective Inspector."
