The Corrupt Police Officer: Episode 14

Always True Crime
About this episode
Integrity is important in every profession, but in the police service it is absolutely vital. In this case, we examine the case of PC Mesut Karakas, a Police Officer working for the Metropolitan Police. Mesut's relationship with integrity was tenuous at best and in this episode of the weekly UK True Crime podcast we examine his career and the choices he made.
