A Lewisham copper was hit with shocking threats in a vile phone call on May 26, 2023. The caller ranted: āIām going to burgle your house. Iām going to f*** you up. Iām going to f*** your partner up you Italian c***.ā
The abuse didnāt stop there. The anonymous voice spat: āYou work for the police, yeah. I will f***ing burgle your house and rape your girl.ā These chilling words sent shockwaves through the force.
Caller Traced to Fellow Officer
In a jaw-dropping twist, the threatening call came from a number linked to PC Oscar Yustos-Moralesāone of the victimās own colleagues. A misconduct hearing uncovered the ugly truth.
Cop Denies Calls but Blocks Investigation
Two weeks after the call, PC Yustos-Morales denied any involvement but refused to hand over an alibi or his phone PIN. Investigators hit a dead end, unable to check his device. Things took a darker turn when he dodged further questions and ultimately quit the police force.
āIrresistible Conclusionā of Guilt
āIt is notable that whoever made the call to Officer A had knowledge of the Lewisham Borough Crime Reference number – the borough which both officers worked out of at the time.ā ā Commander Jason Prins
āOn my view of the facts, I am drawn to the irresistible conclusion that former PC Yustos-Morales participated in the call as outlined in the allegation.ā
Commander Prins ruled that if Yustos-Morales was still serving, he would have been sacked immediately. Instead, the ex-cop is now blacklisted on the College of Policingās barred list ā banned from ever returning to UK policing.
