Episode Details

A shocking probe has been launched after a 2-year-old sexual abuse case was found untouched, triggering a sweeping review of nearly 1,000 cases handled by veteran detective DI Kevan Verry. Fifty-four cases—mostly child protection and adult sexual assault—now require reinvestigation, with fears offenders may have reoffended during the delays. Victims are being contacted, specialist teams deployed, and support agencies mobilized to rebuild trust. Police are overhauling quality controls and have self-referred the matter to the Independent Police Conduct Authority. Authorities stress this does not reflect the majority of officers’ dedication, pledging transparency and accountability as they prioritize victim support.
