Faits vérifiés

  1. Confirmée The Metropolitan Police fired James Deller, special chief officer and head of the Special Constabulary, following a misconduct hearing on Friday.

    IA Result 1 states that Special Chief Officer James Deller, who led the Met's Special Constabulary, was dismissed following an accelerated misconduct hearing on October 9, and result 2 says the Met fired the head of the Special Constabulary after an investigation. The results do not explicitly name the weekday as Friday, so that detail could not be checked directly, though the core event of a dismissal after a misconduct hearing is supported.

  2. Confirmée The Met said investigators used lawful business monitoring and Palantir's Foundry AI system to uncover Deller's misconduct.

    IA Two news reports state that investigators used lawful business monitoring and Palantir's Foundry AI system to uncover Deller's conduct, matching the claim's core. The snippets do not explicitly quote The Met as the source, and both reports may repeat the same original statement, so the attribution to The Met could not be checked directly.

  3. Confirmée In July and August 2025, Deller used his police-issued phone to photograph two intimate images that had been sent to his personal phone.

    IA Multiple results state that in July and August 2025 Special Chief Officer James Deller used his police-issued phone to photograph intimate images of a woman that had been sent to his personal phone. The Sun (result 4) explicitly says 'two intimate images', while the other reports do not give a number, so that detail is only directly supported by one source. The reports appear to share the same underlying misconduct-probe findings.

  4. Confirmée The images were sent using WhatsApp's "view once" feature, and Deller then sent the copied images back to his personal device before deleting them from his work phone.

    IA Multiple results state that the intimate images were originally sent to Deller via WhatsApp's 'view once' feature and that he then sent copies from his work phone back to his personal device before deleting them from the work phone. The Standard's account matches the claim most closely, and the Met Police and Yahoo reports are consistent with it, though they may share a common source.

  5. Confirmée The misconduct was discovered during a week-long operation called Project Galatasaray, which used AI to identify corruption and misconduct within the Met.

    IA Three results state that the misconduct was uncovered during Project Galatasaray, a week-long operation using AI (including Palantir's system) to tackle corruption and misconduct within the Metropolitan Police, matching the claim. The results appear to draw on the same Met announcement, and none gives a conflicting account. Result 4 is unrelated to the Met.

  6. Confirmée Deller will be added to the College of Policing's barred list, meaning he cannot serve in policing again.

    IA The Metropolitan Police statement (result 2) says SCO Deller will be added to the College of Policing's barred list and will not be eligible to serve in policing again, which matches the claim. The Standard (result 1) repeats the same wording and quote, so both likely derive from the same Met announcement rather than two independent sources.

  7. Confirmée In April, the Metropolitan Police Federation urged officers to be "extremely cautious" about carrying Met-issued devices while off duty after the force upgraded its Lawful Business Monitoring software.

    IA The Metropolitan Police Federation's own statement and two news reports (dated late April 2026) say it urged members to be 'extremely cautious' about carrying Met-issued devices when off duty. The snippets do not mention the Lawful Business Monitoring software upgrade, so that causal background could not be checked, but the core claim is supported.

  8. Confirmée Federation general secretary Matt Cane said staff had not been told the software upgrade included Palantir's artificial intelligence technology.

    IA The Metropolitan Police Federation's own statement quotes 'Matt' saying the Federation was 'never informed that the upgrade would include the deployment of Palantir's Artificial Intelligence', which matches the core of the claim. The snippets do not state Matt Cane's title, and the quote refers to the Federation being told rather than 'staff', so this is a close paraphrase. Result 2 repeats the same quote, so both rely on the same underlying statement.
