Britain’s top police force has 161 convicted criminals on its books
Britain’s top police force currently employs 161 officers with criminal convictions, some of which pertain to serious sexual offenses.
This is just one revelation unearthed from an update by the Metropolitan Police Commissioner Sir Mark Rowley to the British government on the action being taken by the force to clean up its image after numerous recent reports concluded it was no longer capable of protecting the public.
The letter by Rowley to Home Secretary Suella Braverman, seen by the British press, highlights the uphill task ahead of those at the helm of Britain’s largest police force to address public concerns over the force’s recruitment and the conduct of its officers.
