Met Police Failures After Levy Sentencing | London News

Mina Smallman, mother of murdered daughters Bibaa Henry and Nicole Smallman, blasts the Metropolitan Police for prioritizing some lives over others, calling their actions “ridiculous” and accusing them of deciding who matters. Her outrage stems from the case of Simon Levy—a convicted sex offender who killed two women after years of police failures, including ignoring his crimes against sex workers until a mother of four was murdered. Levy received a whole-life sentence this week but had previously assaulted eleven other women. Smallman insists both victims’ lives were invaluable, and she criticizes the Met’s size and systemic issues like inactivity, corruption, misogyny, and racism—despite Commissioner Sir Mark Rowley’s stated desire to reform. Crime minister Sarah Jones condemned Levy as a monster and pledged urgent investigations into how he remained free, demanding answers on the failures that allowed him to continue his rampage.
