Why did other countries investigate but not Metropolitan police in this country

Well done channel 4 News

By Channel 4 News Investigations Team
Serious questions raised about why Met Police chose not to investigate alleged offences. Police said today they will ‘review the information’ reported by this programme.

Too many high profile people involved probably. It is a problem. Disgusting people.

Cressida Dick has yet to answer the questions raised by the recently released Daniel Morgan report which strongly accuses the Met of institutional corruption. Not historical corruption either. The Home Secretary has a job to do here in addressing this as more and more evidence of corruption emerges.

Anyone remember Red Riding? A TV drama series about police corruption, murder and child abuse in Yorkshire? It seems the Met police are worse and it is real.

Line of Duty springs to mind.

Dick is undoubtedly implicated, in the culture if corruption. Apparently she was the “gold” officer in charge ( whatever that is) when the innocent chap Jean Charles De Menzies was shot in cold blood in one of the underground stations.

Well it certainly went all quiet on Prince Andrew’s involvement. Oh yes, the palace ‘hid’ him in the corner and hoped it would all go away for which we are all paying for in our taxes.

a blind eye has been turned to so much in this country hasn't it? especially sex/sexually abuse crime related

The MPS passed on the information they were given to the authorities already dealing with the far-reaching investigation into Epstein and Maxwell, and it has

continued to liaise and offer assistance with other law enforcement agencies who lead the investigation into matters related to Jeffrey Epstein

Why would they open a separate investigation?

Mine too.

We thought it was fiction but the truth is probably just as bad if not worse.

I've ever understood why she was promoted after that episode.

Sorry - never understood.

Callistemon Wed 16-Jun-21 11:20:39

Never not ever

That's very interesting read, I missed that last night. I wonder if a decision has been made somewhere to not pursue anything which will likely implicate Andrew until HM has died? I hope there are a few very nervous people this morning. Dirty bastards.

Both Bill Clinton and Donald Trump were close friends of Epstein but I don't know if they have been interviewed about any of it. I watched a programme a while ago about Epstein's private jet dubbed 'The Lolita Express'. The flight and passenger manifests had been released due to the ongoing investigation. Clinton had admitted to 2 flights on this plane, both times with a large number of his staff and no contact with the crew. The paperwork showed over 20 flights made by him and there was even a nice photo of Bill receiving a massage from one of the 'air hostesses' dressed in a sleazy, sexy stewardess outfit. There is a huge story here. Whether it will all come out is doubtful. Money and power talk.

Has the woman who accused Andrew named any other men ?
