No. The custody referred to above is in relation to police custody. Prison custody is not included. So this is just BAMEs dying in police cells.
Likewise, the shootings aren't of all police shootings (terrorists etc).
The reason you cannot see any unlawful killings in the Met's history is not because they do not - in our view - kill blacks unlawfully - it is because they have never been found by a court to have killed unlawfully. No different from anywhere in the USA really, hence Logan's statement that what is happening out there is and has already been happening out here. Feel free to PM and we can chat further.
As always, a pinch of salt is needed, there being lies, damn lies and statistics.
I remember seeing this being waved about elsewhere. Read the title very carefully, the criteria here is not just "dying in police cells," it includes "or otherwise following contact with the police" which includes, IIRC, dying within about 3 days of talking to a plod. Of anything, plod-related or otherwise. Including being murdered by a gang on suspicion of being a snitch, or in hospital after plod respond to 999 call and after they realise, take them to A&E. There's deaths in cells in there, but nobody knows how many, and I suspect that's how the plod like it.
I reckon this is a mixture of plod trying to hide their wrongdoing in larger figures and race-baiters happy to claim every death is state-sponsored execution if a plod is nearby. Result- shit.
Sorry Azechai, nothing personal chap, but if I'm going after coppers for something, I want to nail them with something they can't wriggle out of, and this ain't it sadly.
