Society‘What is the point in reporting?’: London’s street sex work crisis

London police officers have told the BBC that police need to stop criminalising women involved in street sex work following the disastrous Simon Levy murder case. Levy, a convicted sex offender, was able to kill two women and rape another after a series of failings, including by the Metropolitan Police. All three were vulnerable and sometimes engaged in street sex work. The BBC visited the Met’s new two-officer female team in north London, set up to engage with women.
