Team GB's Bianca Williams and fellow athlete Ricardo dos Santos were travelling home with their baby son when they were pulled over by police in west London in July 2020.
Two Metropolitan Police officers have been found guilty of gross misconduct over the stop and search of two black athletes. Olympic sprinter Ricardo dos Santos, 28, and his partner and Team GB athlete Bianca Williams, 29, made a complaint to the police watchdog, believing they were racially profiled during a 'disturbing' stop and search as they drove to their home in west London on 4 July 2020.
Acting Police Sergeant Rachel Simpson, PC Allan Casey, PC Jonathan Clapham, PC Michael Bond and PC Sam Franks had all denied the accusations against them, including allegations they breached police standards over equality and diversity during the stop and search. The disciplinary hearing has not yet come to a ruling on the case against Sergeant Simpson, PC Casey and PC Bond.
