On Monday, two police officers were sentenced for photographing two murdered sisters at a crime scene in London.<\/p>\n
After the 46 and 27-year-old victims were discovered dead in a bush in Fryent Country Park, Wembley, north-west London, police constables Deniz Jaffer and Jamie Lewis were assigned to guard the crime scene overnight.<\/p>\n
Instead, they broke through the cordon to take inappropriate and unauthorised photos of the bodies, which they then shared on WhatsApp.<\/p>\n
Lewis even inserted his face into a photograph of the victims in the background.<\/p>\n
He sent the doctored image to Jaffer, who passed it on to a female officer on the scene.<\/p>\n
Jaffer then showed one of the photos to a male officer as they exited the park and sent others to three WhatsApp friends.<\/p>\n
Lewis, who used derogatory and sexist language, also shared crime scene photos with the A Team, a WhatsApp group of 40-plus officers.<\/p>\n
Following their arrests on June 22, 2020, the pair, who were assigned to the Metropolitan Police’s North East command unit, were suspended from duty.<\/p>\n
Jaffer, 47, of Hornchurch, east London, and Lewis, 33, of Colchester, Essex, both pleaded guilty to public office misconduct.<\/p>\n
Judge Mark Lucraft would sentence them at the Old Bailey on Monday.<\/p>\n
Previously, the sisters’ mother requested that the Metropolitan Police Department exterminate the rot once and for all.<\/p>\n
Previously, a tribunal determined that the officers had engaged in gross misconduct.<\/p>\n
Lewis was fired from the Metropolitan Police immediately, and Jaffer would have been fired as well if he hadn’t already left the force.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
