The Metropolitan police has apologised to Caroline Flack’s family for poor record-keeping after they did not keep details of why the force appealed against prosecutors’ advice, which led to her being charged with assault.
A chief superintendent has said sorry to the late TV presenter’s family after a review by the police watchdog, the Independent Office for Police Conduct (IOPC), said there was no record from the Met on why they appealed against the Crown Prosecution Service’s advice to only caution her.
