Victim speaks out as ex-Metropolitan police officer jailed for rapes

Ex-Pc Adam Provan’s predatory behaviour dated back to the 1990s and went unchecked until a woman came forward in 2016 to report being raped by him when she was 16, Wood Green Crown Court heard

Prosecutors said Provan was obsessed with young women, had viewed teenage pornography and collected more than 700 female contacts on his mobile phone. Afterwards, he acted as if nothing had happened and took Ms Taylor to a McDonald’s for a milkshake before forcing her to engage in a sex act in a children’s playground.

At the fresh trial, Ms Taylor gave evidence for a third time and six more charges of rape, relating to Provan’s earlier attacks on the female officer, were added. She told of being “triggered” by discussion around the murder of Sarah Everard by a Met police officer, saying she already knew about “bad cops”.

Judge Noel Lucas KC told her the treatment she received from the Met was “abysmal”, adding: “I hope it never happens again. More than abysmal, it’s shocking.”
