Video insights

@bbcnews's TikTok video "A Metropolitan Police detective who was raped by a fellow officer has told the BBC that Scotland Yard's handling of her case was "like being raped all over again". Linda Williams, who has waived her right to anonymity for this exclusive interview, was attacked in 2004 by David Carrick, one of the UK’s most notorious sex offenders who was jailed three years ago for attacking Linda and other women. But she says the Met’s conduct during a subsequent civil case left her feeling suicidal. In an unprecedented move for a serving officer, she is calling for the Commissioner, Sir Mark Rowley, to resign, and says she does not trust her own force to handle cases like hers. The Met has paid tribute to her and says it tried to reduce her distress and re-traumatisation. #MetPolice #London #Police #News #BBCNews" has 27,286 views, 1,019 likes, 32 comments, 159 shares in the public metrics captured by this index.
