(Picture: Daniel Hambury)Appalling, abhorrent, devastating and sickening are some of descriptions applied to the crimes of the serial rapist and Met officer David Carrick, whose conviction for 49 offences including 24 rapes has made him one of the country’s worst ever sex offenders.
All are justified but the truth is that it’s hard to find words to express sufficiently either the horror of this vile man’s conduct or its disastrous impact upon the already dire reputation of the force where he worked for more than 20 years, using his status as a police officer to intimidate his victims.
