Stephen Port: Met to be re-investigated over serial killer

Summary by Ground News

Stephen Port is serving a whole-life sentence for the murders of four men. The deaths were not regarded suspicious until weeks after the fourth murder. "Basic failings" were identified at an inquest last year in the way the police handled the four men's deaths in Barking, East London. IOPC will now look into how Scotland Yard investigated the cases during Port's killing spree. None of the 17 officers involved in the case faced disciplinary action.
