A Metropolitan Police detective who was raped by a fellow officer has told the BBC that Scotland Yard’s handling of her case was “like being raped all over again”.<\/p>\n

Linda Williams, who has waived her right to anonymity for this exclusive interview, was attacked in 2004 by David Carrick, one of the UK\u2019s most notorious sex offenders who was jailed three years ago for attacking Linda and other women. But she says the Met\u2019s conduct during a subsequent civil case left her feeling suicidal.<\/p>\n

In an unprecedented move for a serving officer, she is calling for the Commissioner, Sir Mark Rowley, to resign, and says she does not trust her own force to handle cases like hers.<\/p>\n

The Met has paid tribute to her and says it tried to reduce her distress and re-traumatisation.<\/p>\n
