On 28 October, Sgt Clayton Robinson was dismissed<\/a> after a panel heard he had “trivialised the allegation” of a woman during a rape investigation and “mocked the victim” by singing a song with another officer.<\/p>\n

PC Jason Sinclair-Birt was dismissed on 24 October<\/a> after being secretly filmed “boasting about and revelling in the use of force” on a detainee.<\/p>\n

A day earlier, Sgt Joe McIlvenny, PC Philip Neilson and PC Martin Borg were dismissed after allegations of gross misconduct were upheld<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Sgt McIlvenny was filmed being dismissive about a pregnant woman’s allegation of rape and domestic violence against her partner and making misogynistic comments.<\/p>\n

PC Neilson was recorded referring to an “invasion” of “scum” from the Middle East, and made offensive comments about people from Algeria and Somalia.<\/p>\n

Another three officers – PC Sean Park, PC Brian Sharkey and Sgt Steve Stamp – are due to face hearings as part of the Met’s accelerated misconduct proceedings in the wake of the 1 October broadcast.<\/p>\n

A further allegation against Sgt Hume, that he had failed to challenge or report Sgt McIlvenny’s remarks after being informed of them, was also found to be unproven.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"On 28 October, Sgt Clayton Robinson was dismissed after a panel heard he had “trivialised the allegation” of…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":556406,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2],"tags":[13,12,14],"class_list":{"0":"post-556405","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-news","8":"tag-headlines","9":"tag-news","10":"tag-top-stories"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@uk\/115511887349002322","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/556405","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=556405"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/556405\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/556406"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=556405"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=556405"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=556405"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
