00:00Covert filming at Charing Cross Police Station took place while PC Hunter, aged 23 at the time,
00:06was drinking with undercover journalist Rory Bibb in Ells Court in November 2024.
00:12PC Hunter from Cumbria was not featured in the programme, aired in October 2025,
00:18but was caught after the BBC shared unaired footage with the Independent Office for Police Conduct.
00:24The hour-long programme showed officers calling for immigrants to be shot, boasting about excessive use of force and joking
00:32about rape and sexual assault.
00:34After drinking two pints, PC Hunter, who had recently completed his taser training, told the reporter he could not wait
00:42to use it.
00:43And when asked who he would taser first, he replied, probably a homeless man.
00:48He said he would like to arrest all the homeless people in Oxford streets each week, giving them various orders
00:55and notices which would lead to them all going to prison.
00:59He said it felt like an avalanche hitting when he was suspended, adding he always wanted to be a police
01:06officer.
01:07He added the comments were flippant remarks from an idiotic 23-year-old who just wanted to make friends with
01:15someone.
01:15He also said he never used his taser in his 21 months as a police officer and that since returning
01:21to Cumbria,
01:22he has sought to educate himself by volunteering with the Samaritans to help the homeless.
