Carl Beech

Carl Beech, then known publicly under the pseudonym 'Nick', made allegations against several prominent men, claiming that he was taken to Dolphin Square regularly as a young boy and abused.[4]

Exaro and the BBC News both carried interviews with Beech in which he lied about being abused at Dolphin Square.[5][6] The force simultaneously launched a related murder inquiry under the name Operation Midland, in relation to Beech's claims that he saw an MP strangle a child to death.[7][8] On 21 March 2016, the Metropolitan Police announced that this had been closed without any charges.[9] That year it emerged that statements by Beech were fabrications and the Police's coverage was rebuked for being seen to legitimise the claims.[10] In 2019, Beech was convicted of making up allegations of a VIP paedophile ring.[11]
