Met officers sacked after sharing WhatsApp photos of murdered sisters

Two police officers who took “shameful” crime scene photos and described murdered sisters Bibaa Henry and Nicole Smallman as “dead birds” on social media have been sacked after a tribunal.

PC Jamie Lewis, 33, and former officer Deniz Jaffer, 47, used the offensive term when sharing messages on WhatsApp groups after straying from their cordons to take pictures of the two women, who were found dead in bushes in Fryent Country Park, Wembley, north-west London.

Lewis will be instantly dismissed from the force, while Jaffer had already resigned.
