IPCC orders police to apologise over Rachel Nickell murderer

A series of police blunders left a dangerous man free to murder two women, a four-year-old girl, and commit a series of sexual attacks, an official report today found.
The Independent Police Complaints Commission report says that Scotland Yard should publicly apologise to Rachel Nickell's partner, André Hanscombe, whose complaint led to the findings.
Robert Napper was convicted in 2008 of murdering Nickell in 1992 as she walked on Wimbledon Common, London, with her two-year-old son, Alex.
