Photographs of Patsy Stevenson being restrained and pinned down by officers were beamed around the world.
Hundreds, mainly women, attended a vigil for Sarah Everard who was raped and murdered by a service officer.
News of her killing and the disclosure a serving officer, Wayne Couzens, had been arrested led to anger and protests, and hundreds of people, mainly women, attended a vigil at Clapham Common in southwest London three days after Everard’s body was found, and close to where she was last seen. Bindmans, the law firm who represented women, said in a statement the Metropolitan Police had now settled civil claims brought by the women, paying them damages and issuing an apology.“It’s been a really tiring and difficult process but it has felt important to push for some form of accountability and justice for myself and all women who attended the vigil to express our anger and grief over the murder of Sarah Everard by a serving Metropolitan Police officer.
