I bet she wishes Worboys had said that. He didn’t seem to be respecting any quotas.
Not a new phenomenon, that guy that david tennant played from the 70s and 80s only got charged with enough to put him away, not all that he did.
On an individual level it would suck, but the job of the police is to get criminals put away, not individual justice for every person they have committed a crime against
Im assuming the police officer’s intent was to”We’ve got so much evidence against him already that’s he’s definitely going to prison for a long time, so we don’t need to put you through the trauma of reliving it all again”.
Still REALLY bad though. Every victim should have the right to be heard.
A lot of police in this country really don’t seem to give a shit. They treat you like you’re inconveniencing them by bringing up crimes.
Did they though, or did they say “we have other victims with much stronger evidence we can definitely prove, where as you case has less probable evidence that may cause doubt so it’s better if we don’t put it forward” but that wasn’t snappy enough for the headline?
What they *actually* said matters.
This the same Worboys whom the parole board decided to release in 2018, despite protests from senior prison managers, prison psychologists, the probation service and the justice secretary?

What’s her point, though? The police already had a strong enough case to take Warboys to trial, given he was charged in February 2008, and secured a conviction with an indeterminate sentence in March 2009.
The police handling of this case is off the scale even by their standards. I’m appalled, embarrassed and shocked all at the same time. They are awful.
