  一名前伦敦警察局官员因发送极具攻击性的种族主义信息而被定罪。

  去年9月28日,62岁的迈克尔·查德维尔在Whatsapp的一个私人群里与其他五名退休的伦敦警察局警官分享了这张照片。

  这五名警察都承认上个月在同一个小组中发送了种族主义信息,其中包括关于苏塞克斯公爵夫人梅根·马克尔的信息。

  据伦敦地方法院审理,查德威尔转发了一张别人制作的图片,并在社交媒体上分享了这张图片,上面是不同颜色的鹦鹉,上面是不同种族的孩子。

  照片上的文字写道:“为什么我们珍惜每个物种的各种颜色,除了我们自己?”——下面有评论说:“因为我的自行车从来没有被鹦鹉从我家前院偷走过。”

  查德威尔曾在伦敦警察厅的议会和外交保护司令部以及反恐司令部任职,他坚称自己不相信这个“笑话”是种族歧视。

  他否认了通过公共通信发送严重冒犯性种族主义信息的指控,但今天在法庭审判后被判有罪。

  地区法官Tan Ikram说,这条微博的“绝对明确的暗示”是“黑人偷窃”,并补充说:“这是一个明显的种族主义概括和特征,是对少数民族的讽刺。”

  “我毫不怀疑,这是非常无礼的。”

  作为证据,Chadwell说他同意原始帖子的文字,并告诉法庭:“我发这个笑话的原因是因为下面写的东西很傻,这是一个反击,有人在下面写了一些有趣的东西。”

  “虽然同意第一部分的意象,但下面写的是一段关于它的愚蠢言论。”

  “我把这张照片放到群里的原因是这个人在脸书上写的东西,我觉得这是达达主义的,超现实的,有点像巨蟒剧团。”

  LONDON, ENGLAND - SEPTEMBER 7: Former Metropolitan police officer Robert Lewis leaves after attending the preliminary hearing of his trial at Westminster Magistrates Court on September 7, 2023 in London, England. Six former Metropolitan Police officers are charged with various counts of sending grossly offensive racist messages via public communication after a BBC Newsnight investigation. Last year, Newsnight received dozens of messages shared within the chat by a member of the group.

  地区法官宣判查德威尔有罪时说:“这是被告在WhatsApp群里发的一条信息,我敢肯定,这条信息非常无礼。”

  法官说,来自汉普郡利斯的查德维尔通过发送笑话“加入”了犯罪团伙。“我很感兴趣地注意到他(在WhatsApp群里)对其他消息的反应,他说这些消息是他朋友发的。我不得不说,他不愿意说至少有一条是种族主义的,这让我很困扰。”

  他把整件事都发了下来。他认为这很有趣,但这是非常无礼的,他当时也意识到了这一点。这就是为什么我认为被告犯了这一罪行。”

  查德维尔将于12月8日与五名同案被告一起被判刑,他们是萨里郡坎伯利62岁的前大都会警察罗伯特·刘易斯;彼得·布斯,66岁,住在卡马森郡兰代罗;安东尼·埃尔森,67岁,来自多塞特郡伯恩茅斯;艾伦·霍尔,65岁,来自萨福克的斯托马克;以及来自南威尔士斯旺西的65岁的特雷弗·卢顿。他们分享的一些信息还提到了威尔士王子和王妃、已故女王和已故爱丁堡公爵,以及首相里希·苏纳克、前内政大臣普里蒂·帕特尔和前卫生大臣萨吉德·贾维德。

  这些短信是在2020年9月至2022年之间发送的,是在去年10月英国广播公司《新闻之夜》调查后曝光的,伦敦警察厅的专业标准理事会对此展开了调查。
