In 1969, after a sustained campaign of abuse and discrimination from two police officers, David Oluwale was found dead in the River Aire in Leeds. In the immediate aftermath nothing happened, until stories of the abuse, circulating among other officers, reached the ears of young police cadet Gary Galvin, then aged 18. His reporting of the officers in question resulted in the first prosecution of police officers for offences against a person of colour.
In this episode Gary's son Carl, himself now an Assistant Chief Constable with West Yorkshire Police, discusses the case of David Oluwale, the vital role his father played in bringing the offending officers to justice, and the price paid for being an upstander.
