POLICE AGENCY APPEAL
Barbara Gray, Assistant Commissioner for Professionalism at London’s Metropolitan Police Service, said of Carrick, “We should have identified the abusive behavior pattern earlier, but because we were unable to do so, we missed opportunities to remove him from the organisation.”
“We are truly sorry that her continued abuse of power as a police officer may have prolonged the suffering of her victims.
“We know they’ve never complained before because they told their victims that no one would believe them.”
Crown Prosecutor Jaswant Narwal said Carrick’s “level of humiliation of his victims was unprecedented in his 34 years of professional life”.
After Carrick pleaded guilty, his monthly salary from the London Metropolitan Police Service was cut and an expedited process of misconduct was initiated.
