Met may be failing to stop serial killers
HM Inspector of the Constabulary warned the Met 鈥榟asn鈥檛 learned鈥� from Stephen Port case
The Met may be failing to identify serial killers because it is not properly investigating unexpected deaths, the police watchdog says.
It identified five key failings at the Metropolitan Police in a report: a lack of training, poor supervision, "unacceptable" record-keeping, confusing policies and "inadequate" intelligence procedures.
Today鈥檚 Mishal Husain spoke with Matt Parr, HM Inspector of the Constabulary, about the report.
Mishal also spoke to Donna Taylor, the sister of Jack Taylor who was the last victim of Stephen Port, about her experiences dealing with the police following her brother鈥檚 death. Finally, Mishal talked to Assistant Commissioner of the Met Police, Louisa Rolfe, regarding the dangers of poor police practices allowing history to 鈥榬epeat itself鈥�.
