Met Police Forensic Worker Faces Serious Misconduct Charges
A member of the Met’s Forensic Services has been slammed with eight counts of misconduct in public office, spanning nearly a decade from 2009 to 2018.
Evidence Mishandling Under Scrutiny
The shocking charges stem from a probe by the Met’s Directorate of Professional Standards (DPS) into suspected bungling of evidence at the Met’s forensic lab.
Ursula Collins Charged and Suspended
Ursula Collins, 41, was formally charged on Wednesday, 27 January. She is set to appear at Westminster Magistrates’ Court on Tuesday, 16 February.
The Met passed the case to the Independent Office for Police Conduct back in 2018, which ordered a local DPS investigation. Collins has been suspended from duty while the case unfolds.
