Two Metropolitan Police officers have been handed misconduct notices for potential failings in the case of Richard Okorogheye, reports say. Mr Okorogheye, 19, went missing from his home in west London on March 22, and was found more than a week later in a lake in Epping Forest, 20 miles away. The teenager's mother Evidence Joel had previously claimed those who were handling the case had mistreated her. 'Richard Okorogheye (left), who had sickle cell disease, went missing on the evening of March 22 - and his body was found on April 5. 'We will also consider whether Richard's or his mother's ethnicity played a part in the way the initial reports of his disappearance were handled.'
