Ruth Broadbent, barrister at QEB Hollis Whiteman Chambers, looks at the scope of the Angiolini inquiry into the murder of Sarah Everard by a Met Police officer in 2021, in this week’s NLJ

The inquiry, led by former Lord Advocate of Scotland Dame Elish Angiolini QC, has received criticism for being too narrow. Its non-statutory nature means its success will depend on the willingness of the police to co-operate.

Broadbent examines what exactly the inquiry seeks to prevent and how far it is willing to go.
