Two Met police officers arrested over photo of murdered sisters

Two Metropolitan police officers have been arrested after a photograph was allegedly taken of the bodies of murdered sisters in a London park, the Guardian has learned.

Nicole Smallman, 27, and Bibaa Henry, 46, were found stabbed to death in Fryent Country Park in north-west London earlier this month. They were the daughters of a pioneering cleric, Mina Smallman, the Church of England’s first female archdeacon from a black and minority ethnic background.

The sisters were reported missing after a birthday gathering on 5 June, and their bodies were found on 7 June. Police confirmed several days later that they had been stabbed to death by a stranger who was likely to have been injured in the attack and is still at large.

Dawn Butler MP has just been on the Channel 4 news saying that they took selfies with their murdered bodies. How appalling. They ignored the family when they reported them. The boyfriend of one found the bodies and then when the police finally turn up to do their jobs they took selfies and shared them. BLM right? Just disgusting.
