I think he snuck one into a Whitchurch sandwich shop, based on an experience of mine a couple of years back
That was probably your wife.
This is why people are losing respect for the police...

I learned some time ago that my wife's cooking is best avoided, even the dogs politely shuffle off when faced with it

If you're in any job and someone has an inappropriate nickname known by many of his colleagues, then the chances are he's a wrong 'un.
I wish we could bring back public flogging for these people. Mainly for the public humiliation of it.

Absolute lunatics. Yet again though they've seemingly had multiple opportunities to stop this guy and have utterly failed.

It's just sickening.
The police have apologised for missing repeated red flags so everything's ok.
I do feel very sorry for the genuine police people as this just makes their job even harder.
What is it about the met that they have so many rapey officers.
''Met Police knew of previous allegations
Following his guilty pleas, the Met Police confirmed Carrick "had come to the attention of the Met and other forces on nine occasions prior to October 2021".
They included allegations of rape, domestic violence, and harassment between 2000 and 2021 but he faced no criminal sanctions or misconduct findings.''

That's what I find the most frustrating thing. The repeated red flags. Not one. Repeated. It just stinks of incompetence and complete apathy towards potential victims. You can bet nobody will be held to account though.

I think it is almost like it can be the perfect profession to hide that kind of behaviour.
He apparently told one of his victims that they would never be believed, simply because he was a police officer.
They also get to stroke their egos, and needs, and feelings for control and dominance.
A bit like child abusers will choose professions along the lines of teachers or foster carers, etc, to get close to their victims.

Sounds like the met police are happy policing the public, when they really should be policing themselves instead.

Rule one of public service is "always blame the dead guy/ guy who left"
It's so true.
I just saw the news about David Carrick and thought he would have done it no matter what job he was in and not always the police at fault, then heard about the suspicions before he became a police officer and yeah they are also at fault in this case.
I don't feel the UK Police should be tarnished because one guy who joined committed horrible crimes. It's not like you can realistically fire someone over unproven allegations or suspicion. This can happen in any profession, clearly there needs to be some improved processes and they need to figure out how they can handle these things better, but I'm sure everyone who works with him is absolutely horrified.
