A former Met Police officer has said she witnessed her male colleagues share “revenge porn” while at work. Alice Vinten, who spent 11 years in the Met, said she saw fellow officers share pictures that had been sent in confidence by their girlfriends, who were often also in the police force.
Ms Vinten said she experienced sexism throughout her career as a frontline police officer, and even had male colleagues randomly show her pornography. She added that officers also made jokes about her giving oral sex while she was eating a banana.
“I remember them taking the mick out of one of the younger officers because he had got an STI from a prostitute. There was even stories of them using prostitutes in this country,” she said.
