THE mother of two murdered sisters said yesterday that an apology from the Metropolitan Police “felt like a slap in the face” after two officers were jailed for sharing photos of their bodies.

Mina Smallman told Desert Island Discs that she was “celebrating” when the constables were jailed, adding that “hidden pockets of filth” had been “allowed to blossom” in the force.

Ms Smallman’s daughters, Nicole Smallman, 27, and Bibaa Henry, 46, were stabbed to death while celebrating a birthday in a park in Wembley, north-west London, in June 2020.
