David Carrick (born 4 January 1975) is an English serial rapist and former police officer who worked for the Metropolitan Police. He joined the police force in 2001 and worked as an armed officer in the Parliamentary and Diplomatic Protection (PaDP) branch from 2009 until his suspension and subsequent sacking from his position in 2021. [1] An independent public inquiry into the case is being chaired by Lady Elish Angiolini. [2]

Following his arrest, Carrick pleaded guilty to multiple counts of rape between 2002 and 2021. [3] In 2023, he was sentenced to life imprisonment, with a minimum term of more than thirty years.

Early life and education

David Carrick was born in Salisbury, Wiltshire, on 4 January 1975. [4] [5] At the time of his birth, Carrick's parents, a cleaner and a Royal Artillery soldier, lived at Bulford military camp in Wiltshire. [4] After the birth of his sister, the family moved to nearby Durrington. [4] Carrick went to Durrington comprehensive school. [4] His parents divorced when he was a teenager. [4]

Career and criminality

After a short career in the British Army, [6] Carrick became an officer with the Metropolitan Police (Met) in 2001, [7] initially serving as a response officer in South London, [8] before he joined the armed Parliamentary and Diplomatic Protection (PaDP) branch in 2009. [9]

Although both the Met and other British police forces received multiple complaints about his behaviour, including an investigation for domestic abuse in 2002, [6] Carrick was re-certified to remain an armed police officer in 2017. [9] Work colleagues gave Carrick the nickname 'Bastard Dave', due to his propensity for cruelty. [9]

Between 2003 and 2020, Carrick abused and raped multiple women he met using the dating sites Badoo and Tinder, often in Hertfordshire. [3] [9] Using his job as a police officer to gain their trust and inflate his apparent importance, he developed several abusive relationships. [6] Carrick degraded his victims via physical abuse with a belt, imprisonment in small spaces, urinating on them and rape. [6] In some cases he controlled what his victims wore, when or what they ate and where they slept. [6] He would sometimes ban them from eating altogether. [6]

In October 2021, a woman reported to the police that Carrick had date raped her a year earlier, deciding to come forward the day after Wayne Couzens, who served in the same unit as Carrick, was sentenced for the rape and murder of Sarah Everard. [6] [8]

On 2 October 2021, Carrick was arrested at his home in Hertfordshire. On body-worn video, he is heard to say: "There's no necessity", regarding his arrest. [8] Carrick was suspended from police work. [3]

Forty officers and staff were assigned to Carrick's case, all were required to give written undertakings not to disclose information about the case, in order to stop leaks from reaching the press. [8] Carrick initially pleaded not guilty to all the charges. [10] In May 2022, he was held on remand at HM Prison Belmarsh in south-east London. [10] In December 2022, [3] at the Old Bailey criminal court in Central London, [11] Carrick then pleaded guilty to 49 charges, including 24 of rape; [3] the charges related to twelve female victims. [6] On 16 January 2023, at Southwark Crown Court, he pleaded guilty to four more charges of rape. [3]

Sadiq Khan, Mayor of London, reacted with a statement that he was "absolutely sickened and appalled". [12] Crown Prosecution Service Chief Prosecutor Jaswant Narwal was quoted as stating "the scale of the degradation Carrick subjected his victims to is unlike anything I have encountered in my 34 years with the Crown Prosecution Service". [11]

In the wake of Carrick's conviction, the Metropolitan Police said the force was re-examining past claims of domestic abuse or sexual offences against its officers and staff, affecting about 1,000 of its 45,000 employees. [13] [14]

Carrick's sentencing hearing at Southwark Crown Court began on 6 February 2023. [15] The following day, he received 36 life sentences with a minimum term of 30 years plus 239 days, meaning he must serve that time in prison before becoming eligible for parole. [16] He will become eligible for parole on 2 May 2052. [17]

Outline of victims, offending, offences and sentences

The following details regarding the victims and the background to the offences, as well as the specific counts on the indictments and sentences are taken from the sentencing remarks by sentencing judge Bobbie Cheema-Grubb: [18] [8]

VictimBackgroundCount/OffencesLawSentence
TCarrick met T, aged 20 years old, in a bar, inviting her to a house warming party at his flat. T felt reassured when Carrick stated he was the 'safest person' she could be with as he was a police officer. However, there was no party and Carrick held T against her will for hours, raping her vaginally and anally, using violence to hold her down. When T struggled, Carrick put a handgun to her head. She thought she was going to be raped and killed. Carrick forced his penis into T's mouth, biting and bruising her. Attending hospital after the assaults, a nurse remarked that it wasn't the first time she had heard about a police officer raping someone, when T told her the details she knew of her attacker. The nurse stated it would be difficult to get the case to court as the law protected 'their own'.Count 1 False imprisonment Common Law Life imprisonment

NN had attended school with Carrick and the pair reconnected at a reunion in 2009, and the pair attended another reunion during the August Bank holiday of 2009. N, now married, shared a room with another woman and Carrick, sharing a bed with Carrick. She remonstrated when Carrick kept touching her intimately. As she left the bed to share a different bed with her friend, Carrick dragged her back, holding N's arms behind her back and telling her it would be his 'little secret'. N didn't want to do anything with Carrick, resisting, however, Carrick penetrated her vagina and anus with his fingers, then attempted to rape her.Count 5Assault by penetrationLife imprisonment

SS was a member of a martial arts club that Carrick was part of.

However, when at home and naked, Carrick became aggressive, forcibly pinning S on the bed, scaring her and challenging her to overcome him. Carrick attempted to rape her, but couldn't maintain an erection, which angered him. Encountering S on a later occasion, he made public comments that humiliated her.Count 9Attempted vaginal rapeLife imprisonment
KK and Carrick knew each other from school and were friends. Having met her in 2015, Carrick told her he was a police officer, with K being attracted to him. After Carrick started to have anal sex with K, she told him to stop as it hurt her. Carrick ignored her, resulting in K being in pain for day afterwards. K didn't feel she could report the rape to the police, as Carrick was a police officer.Count 8Anal rapeSection 1 of the Sexual Offences Act 2003 Life imprisonment
BB and Carrick met through a dating app and were in a relationship for six months. At the time they met, B was in a vulnerable position, as at the time, she was in an unhappy marriage. Carrick was intense with his charm and B quickly agreed to move in with him, being reassured that Carrick was a police officer. Carrick offered B £1,000 a month to be his 'slut'. Carrick didn't want the woman to bring her daughter with her when she moved in, however, she did and the 10-year-old heard some of the abuse her mother suffered, including hearing her being raped.

Over their six month relationship, Carrick cut B off from most of her family and friends, watching her while he was at work through a camera he'd set up at home. Carrick supervised what B could eat, with her changing from a size 14 to a size 6 in a couple of months. Having undergone an operation to remove haemorrhoids, Carrick forced B to have anal sex with him and in what was a violent and angry rape, with B in intense pain, she fought Carrick, with Carrick tearing her anus. On another occasion, B didn't want to have oral sex, as her daughter's friends were staying at the address and they may have heard the couple, however, Carrick forced B to take his penis in her mouth, humiliating her, gagging her, so B struggled to breathe. By the time B escaped from Carrick, she was suicidal.

JJ and Carrick met in a bar in Ely, where he had been socialising with other officers. Wooing J with charm, the relationship developed quickly and the pair were in a relationship from March 2017 to January 2019. J was reassured that Carrick was a police officer. However, Carrick told J that she belonged to him and as a result, had to obey him; on one occasion sending her a photo from work of his firearm with the message 'remember I am the boss'. He humiliated J by calling her a 'whore' and 'prostitute'. Carrick controlled who J saw, what she did, ate and wore, even what side of the pavement she was allowed to walk. Carrick threatened J with a police baton and belittled her job as a mental health nurse, deriding people with mental health issues, including her son, whom she stopped J from seeing for a year. Carrick tracked J using a camera in his house, speaking to her through it, accusing her of being lazy.

Carrick was aggressive to J sexually, raping her anally and orally on many occasions, resulting in J sometimes bleeding from her anus. On one occasion, Carrick made J have anal sex in a tent that was next to another her parents were in on holiday, covering J's mouth. J felt unable to cry out for help when her father entered the tent to ask if she was ok. During orally raping J, Carrick would cause her to gag and vomit, but carried on regardless. Carrick gave J a sexually transmitted disease and gained sexual excitement from urinating on her and within her mouth, making J swallow his urine. Carrick attempted to fist J and made her lick his anus. He used police-issued handcuffs to restrain J when he raped her. Carrick left welts on J's bottom from whipping her, either as part of sex or as a punishment; when J escaped from Carrick, she took the whip to 'save other women from harm'. Carrick would shut J naked in a small under-stairs cupboard as a punishment, even whilst she had a panic attack, with Carrick standing and whistling outside. Carrick 'drilled into' J that he was the police, the law and owned her. J didn't report Carrick to police, thinking the police would investigate it and she wouldn't be believed, terrified at becoming a target of Carrick. It was only when he was arrested, that J got the confidence to speak out.

WW was on a dating site that Carrick was on whilst in a relationship with J. The pair met in 2018 and Carrick told her he was a police officer. W was a cleaner and Carrick told her he wanted her to clean for him, having carried out a 'police force check' on W. W trusted Carrick because of his job. Carrick showed texts that he had sent to J which made W feel sorry for her, at how inappropriate and abusive they were.

One day, when W was cleaning Carrick's shower, he attacked her whilst he was naked, putting his penis in her mouth, where she gagged and was unable to breathe. Carrick ejaculated in her mouth and W was sick.

PP was on a dating site that Carrick was on whilst in a relationship with J. P was a vulnerable woman with a mild learning disability and also experienced anxiety. It would have been apparent to Carrick that P was unable to speak up for herself confidently. Carrick told P that he worked as an armed police officer and Carrick's relationship with P was exploitative. P would attend Carrick's address and clean for him and to begin with, Carrick was funny and nice to her. However, under the influence of alcohol, Carrick changed into a 'monster'. P wanted Carrick to like her, but he treated her as a slave, calling her this.

Carrick orally raped P and on at least three occasions, put his penis so far down her throat that she gagged, being unable to breathe and vomited, which excited Carrick. On occasions when P performed oral sex on Carrick, he urinated into her mouth and onto her body. Carrick forced a dildo into her anus until P was screaming. He also attempted to force his fist into her. When P screamed, Carrick shoved her into the shower, urinating over her, causing P to vomit.

FF and Carrick met through a dating site in February 2020 and she moved in with him in March, leaving in July that year. Because he was a police officer, F believed Carrick was trustworthy. Carrick quickly gained control over F's behaviour and time. F was afraid of Carrick because of his aggression and due to him threatening to report her to the immigration authorities. On the first occasion Carrick anally raped F, she cried from pain and her anus bled; Carrick's response was that she was 'making a fuss'. On each occasion, F told Carrick she didn't want to do anal sex, but Carrick disregarded clear objections and subdued her. As he had done so with other victims, Carrick forced his penis into F's mouth and urinated, or urinated over her face. In July 2021, a year after F had left Carrick, the allegations came to Hertfordshire Police's notice.Count 39Coercive and controlling behaviourSection 76 of the Serious Crime Act 2015 4-years-imprisonment (concurrent)

The Rotherham child sexual exploitation scandal consists of the organised child sexual abuse that occurred in the town of Rotherham, South Yorkshire, Northern England, from the late 1980s until 2013 and the failure of local authorities to act on reports of the abuse throughout most of that period. Researcher Angie Heal, who was hired by local officials and warned them about child exploitation occurring between 2002 and 2007, has since described it as the "biggest child protection scandal in UK history", with one report estimating that 1,400 girls were abused by "grooming gangs" between 1997 and 2013. Evidence of the abuse was first noted in the early 1990s, when care home managers investigated reports that children in their care were being picked up by taxi drivers. From at least 2001, multiple reports passed names of alleged perpetrators, several from one family, to the police and Rotherham Council. The first group conviction took place in 2010, when five British-Pakistani men were convicted of sexual offences against girls aged 12–16.
