Human error may have led to grooming gang cases being dropped - NCA Operation Beaconport

[IwantToRetire]

Operation Beaconport - a National Crime Agency project tasked with unearthing failings to tackle grooming gangs - is set to look at thousands of cases where police forces and the Crown Prosecution Service decided to take no further action against suspects.

Police say that there appear to be cases where lines of inquiry were not pursued properly, victim accounts were not taken, and suspects were not interviewed as they should have been.

Investigations that were wrongly closed with no further action taken have already been discovered.

Quite.

Is 'error' shorthand for longstanding institutional fuckup and indifference?

Well no. Allowing the community of the rapists to decide their punishment would probably end up in a similar situation to what we have now - fuck all happening because the girls were obviously just slags who were up for it.

Another thread that seems to have had the info in the OP ignored.

The accusation is that the police and CPS decided to "take no further action".

Not a human error.

An actual decision to not persue a complaint to trial.

Or is it because it is men, the "error" is other men not recognising this as a crime.

Its well known that the CPS drops as many cases as it can, and only wants the open and shut cases to make their stats look good.

Not forgetting that even in open and shut cases juries wont always convict in rape trials because juries, including women, dont want a man's reputation to be damage and stop him from getting employment.

How can the call conscious decisions an error.

Or are the obliquely recognising that men's view of the world is an error.

A small sop to say how naughty of us not to see our "natural" behaviour as a crime.

Well, I'm old so it doesn't that long ago that they arrested children and charged them with prostitution

This was the male Pakistani Muslim senior social worker, who advised that a 15 year old girl, who was raped and abused from the age of 13, should live with her abuser. He was present at the Islamic wedding ceremony, where she married her abuser. The police investigated him and found he had done nothing wrong. Every person involved in this case should be in prison for a very long time. The social worker, Anwar Meah is still working for Bradford social services AFAIK.

I think media sources such as the BBC are complicit in covering this up. This FB page has stopped letting people comment.

Yep

"Police indifference and incompetence" is more likely correct.
They shoukd aldo be investigated for corruption becsuse i'd be shocked if some of them weremt taking back handers and turning a blind eye to this horror.

Yes, so do I. Can you see the problem with that? Just checking.🤐

When this was first reported, it was just the social worker attended the wedding, nothing about the sex or race of the SW. I filled in the blanks myself and assumed it was a young white woman. When I very recently learned the truth, I'm still working through my own prejudices and assumptions there, I was utterly horrified.

It’s so awful. And criticising this man will be caught up in the purposely wide definitions of ‘Islamophobia’ and conflated with any actual acts of harassment or violence against Muslim people in order to make the case for extra protection for Muslim people and therefore making it harder to call out behaviour like this.

Quite. I think lots of people make a fairly natural assumption that it was just a silly misguided and woke SW but knowing his sex and religion would prompt people to join the dots and realise that he is enabling his fellow Muslim. There’s a reason why those facts were concealed. The media are complicit in the cover ups.
