Police drop most complaints of officer violence against women, figures show - BBC News

[TheBiologyStupid]

According to the BBC:

Complaints about police officers' treatment of women are highly unlikely to result in action, according to new police data for England and Wales.

The National Police Chiefs' Council says nine in 10 complaints were dropped in the six months to March 2022.

It comes as the former wife of a West Yorkshire Police firearms officer says the force failed to fully investigate her allegations of domestic violence.

West Yorkshire Police says it has now suspended an officer.

Just when the police really needed to get a grip, to the astonishment of no-one at all, they fail women again.

Meanwhile, in The Guardian:

More than 1,500 police officers have been accused of violent offences against women and girls over a period of six months, and less than 1% have been sacked, according to new figures.

Overall, 1,483 unique allegations were reported against 1,539 police officers – or 0.7% of the workforce. There were 1,177 cases of alleged police-perpetrated violence, including sexual harassment and assault, reported between October 2021 and April 2022, according to data from the National Police Chiefs’ Council (NPCC).

Yet they've spent hours and hours of police time harassing investigating women (kjk) for using the wrong pronouns on Twitter, being untoward about paedophiles or accurately sexing other humans.

Honestly this is terrifying, there seems to be no rule of law protecting women (the xx kind) anymore.

Those hate crime investigations stand out in stark contrast to the lack of action when their own officers are involved in crimes against women. I noticed that "Alice's" ex husband worked for West Yorkshire Police.

Alice says her former husband claimed she would never be believed against his word as a police officer. She describes West Yorkshire Police's response as an "intentional overlooking of his behaviour"."I have cited to them extreme controlling and coercive behaviour and no investigation was opened," she told BBC News. "The reality is, in my case, that it's not taken seriously and it feels as though they cover up for one another.

You can't expect the police to police themselves. Poor lambs! You're asking WAY to much of them and their limited resources.

They are far to busy doing important stuff like arresting women for stating biological reality and putting up stickers!

poor misunderstood police! 🙄

From the bbc link

During the six months to March last year, the National Police Chiefs' Council (NPCC) found 1,539 officers had been implicated in alleged police-perpetrated violence against women and girls.

The report says the true figures are likely to be far higher because of under-reporting by police staff, and inaccuracies and inconsistencies in data collection across forces.

Among the complaints from the public, 63% were accusations over use of force, 9% overbearing or harassing behaviour, and 6% sexual assault.

The NPCC concludes it is highly unlikely a police officer will face proceedings over an allegation, with only one in 100 sacked.

Let's hope we see a change.

Thank you Harry Miller for facing the considerable personal cost of taking this to court.

It seems to me if all the police time wasted on checking people's thinking was put towards rape as a crime, that might hugely improve the police's performance in this area.

I note the Labour weasel words at the end when they're the ones promoting the destruction of women's rights and can't even define 'woman'. Under Labour I fully expect to see more of the waste of time type activities such as interviewing KJK about pronoun use.

Thanks, dimorphism. I see that the new guidelines will be introduced in parliament on Monday so hopefully things are moving forward.

Is anyone really surprised? I imagine the figures are no better when they ‘investigate’ excessive force / violence against male suspects. Ian Tomlinson’s death, for one, would have been swept under the carpet had there not been cameras recording his death.

They’ve always been fond of covering their own backs, and colluding in the cover up of colleagues’ actions. Not one of the participants in Wayne Couzen’s WhatsApp group saw anything wrong with the tone of their posts.
