Bianca Williams: PCs win appeal over stop and search sacking
Jonathan Clapham and Sam Franks were sacked over their search of Bianca Williams and Ricardo Dos Santos.www.bbc.co.uk
Institutionally what?
Also the reporting suggests, or at least a reader can conclude, that it was believed that they could smell cannabis in the car, which for two professional athletes is a very serious suggestion.
It did smack of double standards at the time mind, imagine how many other black drivers get the old ‘I can smell cannabis’ as an excuse to go over board but as they aren’t famous they don’t have a voice and its treated as completely normal.
