NLJ this week: Corruption at the Met

Corruption in the Metropolitan Police is not new and has not been fixed despite several high-profile cases over the years, professors Mike McConville and Luke Marsh write in this week’s NLJ

They look at the astonishing case of Daniel Morgan, the private investigator gruesomely murdered in 1987 and the police failings exposed by the recent independent panel report into the case.

McConville and Marsh trace the history of police corruption and the difficulty of exposing it in a ‘firm within a firm’.
