Two Metropolitan police officers were yesterday handed 12-week jail sentences for racist, misogynist, sexist, homophobic, Islamophobic and ableist messages shared in a WhatsApp group containing Sarah Everard’s murderer, Wayne Couzens.
District Judge Sarah Turnock jailed PC Jonathon Cobban, 35, and former officer Joel Borders, 45, saying she could not think of “more grossly offensive messages”.
“They encapsulated the full range of prejudiced views, racism, misogyny, ableism and homophobia,” the judge said. The messages, which were sent in a WhatsApp group between April and August 2019, were uncovered from an old mobile phone found during the police probe into Everard’s murder in March 2021 and were sent whileProsecutors then considered evidence referred by the Independent Office for Police Conduct and the officers were charged in February with sending grossly offensive messages on a public communications network, contrary to section 127 of the Communications Act 2003.
