The Metropolitan Police has dismissed Special Chief Officer James Deller, head of its volunteer Special Constabulary, after an AI-assisted Palantir Foundry probe found he copied a woman's intimate images onto his work phone. Investigators said he photographed view-once WhatsApp pictures in 2025, sent copies to his personal device, then deleted those images. He will join the College of Policing barred list and cannot serve again.
