Bianca Williams: Two Met officers guilty of athlete search gross misconduct
By Jess Warren, Adina Campbell & PA MediaBBC News
Two Metropolitan Police officers who carried out a stop-and-search of two athletes in west London committed Gross Misconduct , a tribunal panel has found.
British world championships medallist Bianca Williams , 29, and Portugal Olympic sprinter Ricardo Dos Santos, 28, say they were racially profiled.
They were handcuffed and searched outside their Maida Vale home while their baby was in The Car In July 2020.
Ms Williams filmed it and their coach Linford Christie posted it online.
During The Incident , the couple were pulled over by officers as They Returned from a training session and searched on suspicion of having drugs and weapons, but nothing was found.
Five Met officers were accused of Gross Misconduct , which they denied.
A disciplinary hearing found the behaviour of PC Jonathan Clapham and PC Sam Franks breached professional standards of police behaviour in relation to honesty and integrity.
'Driving while black'The two officers had claimed they smelled cannabis coming from the couple's car but The Panel said it was likely The Smell had emanated from another area.
The hearing was told those officers were " untruthful in smelling cannabis" and were " not seen to attempt to verify The Smell " which led to them becoming " trapped in a lie" when they gave evidence.
The officers face being sacked from The Force .
The couple complained to The Police watchdog about what had happened to them, saying they had been racially profiled because Mr Dos Santos was " DWB, driving while black" in a Mercedes. The watchdog brought a case against the officers.
Karon Monaghan KC, for the IOPC, told the disciplinary panel at the start of the hearing that the watchdog's case would say there was " institutional discrimination" in The Met Police.
Earlier this year, Ms Williams won bronze in the 4x100m at the World Athletics Championships in Budapest.
She and Mr Dos Santos, who competed in the 400m at the Tokyo 2021 Olympics, are both coached by Mr Christie, The British former 100m Olympic champion.
The Delivery of The Panel 's findings is ongoing.
