The Predator in the Police
Warren Arter was seen as a star detective in the Metropolitan Police, but he was also a sexual predator. Why didn't the Met act sooner to stop the predator in its ranks?
Warren Arter was seen as a star detective in the Metropolitan Police, but he was also a sexual predator. He used his position running a rape and sexual offences unit to groom and sexually exploit vulnerable women whose cases he investigated. But the Met missed a string of opportunities to stop Arter and then suspended him on full pay for almost seven years before finally dismissing him for drug offences in 2023.
In 2024, he was with his wife Rebekah when she died in a hotel room in Barbados in mysterious circumstances. Reporter Noel Titheradge investigates the case that has been called the Met's 'dirty secret' and tracks down new witnesses who tell him what really happened. Could Rebekah's death have been prevented? And why didn't the Met act sooner to stop the predator in its ranks?
