A JustGiving page has garnered more than £100,000 in just two days to support two Metropolitan Police officers, PCs Jonathan Clapham and Sam Franks, who were dismissed from their positions due to their involvement in the stop and search of Team GB star Bianca Williams and her partner Ricardo Dos Santos.
The incident took place on July 4, 2020, when the officers pulled over and handcuffed Portuguese Olympian Bianca Williams, 28, and Team GB world championship medalist Ricardo Dos Santos, 29. They later faced accusations of lying about smelling cannabis coming from the couple’s car. While allegations against three other officers were not proven, PCs Clapham and Franks were dismissed for gross misconduct.
