Call for private security 'accountability' the pot calling the kettle black?

The New South Wales Police Association has warned the State Government of the need to ensure the accountability of private security firms hired to guard strategic sites in the heightened terrorist alert.

[Rubbish, the heightened fear mongering by the loser federal government to bolster support and quell dissent for the Coalition of the Killing's illegal and degrading resource wars in the Middle East. How come the Police Association is that stupid? Because they know too, so that informs the general public just how twisted the Police Association are. All because police want the jobs, be honest fool.]

The NSW Government has hired a private security company to conduct around the clock patrols on the walkway of the Sydney Harbour Bridge at a cost of $1.7 a year.

Police association president Ian Ball has supported the Government employing reputable firms to conduct static security services. But he has warned the Government the entire private security industry is not above reproach.

"I have no doubt that there has been security companies who have in fact created problems in order to keep business," Mr Ball said.

[But not the police? You idiot!]

"The whole standard of ethic in some companies is very ordinary. "Some of the companies are very good but I think this is where the Government is going to have enormous difficulty given the lack of accountability in private security - it comes down to bottom line profit."

Mr Bob Dobolina a spokesperson for Justice Action said " Former police usually end up in private security firms or as doorman in night clubs and police get on pretty well with them when they want something."

At the end of the day why would you trust police any more than private security?" He said.

"I mean it's not as if there are no corrupt police. Ian Ball is just grovelling about not getting the work he doesn't give a hoot about accountability after his organisation promoted corrupt police right under his nose.

What's that smell? Rotten to the core. It comes down to bottom line greed.

THE CHOOK: Police are not above reproach and the whole standard of ethics in some police is degrading.

Supreme Court overturns sniffer dog ruling

A Strange dog can sniff you personally, but if a person sniffed you between the legs it would constitute as a sexual assault?

A Local Court magistrate's finding that the use of a drug sniffer dog by police constituted an illegal search has been overturned by the New South Wales Supreme Court.

Justice Barry O'Keefe found police use of the sniffer dog, Rocky had not violated police powers.

[Even if the dog sniffed your crotch?]

Nightclub goer Glen Darby was arrested early one morning on Oxford Street in Sydney in February last year, after police found speed and marijuana on him when Rocky nosed his pockets.

A magistrate in the local court decided it was an illegal search, and the case was thrown out.

Laws relating to sniffer dogs have since been changed, but the Department of Public Prosecutions took Mr Darby's case to the Supreme Court. Justice O'Keefe has ruled Rocky's sniffing of Mr Darby was not a search. Instead his actions provided police with information, giving them the reasonable suspicion they needed to search Mr Darby.

The charges against Mr Darby will be reinstated, but his lawyer Phillip Gibson says an appeal will be considered.

Council of Civil Liberties spokesman Cameron Murphy says even though laws relating to sniffer dogs have changed, widespread use of the dogs remain a violation of civil liberties.

"Well the point is that as soon as the dog sniffs you, which is an absolutely inappropriate form of conduct, then it's up to you to empty out items in your possession and establish that you're innocent," he said.


"It goes against the grain of our fundamental principles of democracy."

A spokesperson for Justice Action Ms Pal Dogfood said " My pussy would be very annoyed if Rocky approached me in the street and attempted to sniff my personals. In fact I am very annoyed with that naughty Judge, the pervert."

PUSSY: Makes you wonder what Barry O'Keefe gets up to on weekends? And do the police take the drugs home for a private party of their own?

UN charter doesn't reflect new self-defence needs: Hill?

So get Hill to charter self-defence needs?

The Defence [War] Minister, Robert Hill, says the United Nations' charter needs to be changed to help countries defend themselves against potential threats. [?]

[Pre-emptive strikes on soveriegn nation states like Iraq and Afghanistan?]

The comments come as the United States continues to raise the prospect of a pre-emptive strike against Iraq. Australia has previously given in-principle support to the "first strike" policy, but favours a peaceful resolution. [Just plain rubbish!]

Senator Hill says while the UN charter permits self-defence, it was designed to deal with conventional conflicts rather than threats posed by global terrorism and the proliferation of chemical, biological and nuclear weapons. "Whilst anticipatory self-defence has always been permissible, clearly this new environment requires a more liberal definition of self-defence to be meaningful," Senator Hill said.

However, Labor's Shadow Minister for Foreign Affairs, Kevin Rudd, says the United Nations' Charter does not need to be changed.

"The problem doesn't exist in terms of the language of the UN charter," Mr Rudd said.

"The problem which presents itself to the Australian Government is justifying at this stage a US first strike against Iraq under the self-defence provisions of the UN charter."

A spokesperson for Justice Action Mr. Heat Seeker said " First strike will only provoke conflict and it is written in all the literature so why ignore history. Are you gonna say yes I defended myself your honour by blowing up the bastard because I thought he might strike?"

Economy benefiting from non-profit institutions

Non-profit institutions are contributing $30 billion a year to Australia's economy.

The Australian Bureau of Statistics has found about a third of that comes from volunteers who worked free for more than 550 million hours in 1999/2000.

That means non-profit organisations contribute more to the economy than industries including hospitality and recreation.

NSW opposition pledges review of detention laws

New South Wales Opposition Leader John Brogden has pledged a full review of periodic detention laws, if he wins Government next March.

Mr Brogden has highlighted a case in which he says a child sex offender was given preferential treatment to protect him from other prisoners.

He also claims the current system allows some offenders to serve only a third of their terms in jail, by moving them onto home detention within six months of their sentence.

A spokesperson for Justice Action Ms Anal Advice said " NSW Prisons are a sex offence if you have been raped, bashed and squatted down to be strip searched. People should be diverted from going there at all material times".

Brogden when on to say "What sort of a crazy system is it that allows child sexual offenders after so-called good behaviour of six months ... [to] become eligible for the rest of their sentence to be served through home detention," he said.

Ms Anal "The same sort of crazy system that allows anyone to become eligible?"

[Also Brogden knows like everyone that a child sex offender has no defence and is the most unpopular person alive once they've been convicted or branded. However, the prison system itself breeds them like the common cold.]

The Coalition believes periodic detention should be denied to serious first-time offenders.

Ms Anal believes John Brogden should spend some time in jail to find out what a real pain in the arse is. What Brogden calls a sex offender is probably (miss con screwing) the facts. Misconstruing is a good description of an Anal Retentive dumbo who can't tell the difference between young adults and serious matters.

Tough luck! Kicks the poor to death

Australia is urged to adopt a United States-style welfare system, [?] cut welfare spending [social services spending] and encourage people to help themselves in a book on poverty published today.

The book, by Peter Saunders and Kayoko Tsumori, of the Centre for Independent Studies, says only 5 per cent of Australians are poor, not 13 per cent as claimed recently by the National Centre for Economic Modeling.Consequently, they say, poverty in Australia is a small problem that can be targeted and solved - and the solution lies in policies that encourage self-help and personal responsibility.

"The self-help strategy ... seeks to solve the problems of the poor without confiscating other people's money in the process," the book says. It urges Australia to cut taxes and welfare benefits, and adopt the US philosophy that poor people are "the authors of their own fate".

[So then do they advocate that corporate welfare should be cut? And what about other people's money? Where did they get it? Off other people? Maybe off the poor people too? You idiot! What happened to good will? What happened to Interdependence? What about the sick, disabled and mentally ill people? What about people who can't find a job? Do they spend their time stealing off the rich now? What about going to jail for that? If that be the case then what about 60,000 taxpayers dollars a year to keep desperate people in prison for stealing? ]

Under US welfare reform, sole parents are cut off benefits after two consecutive years and are entitled to income support for a maximum of five years over their lifetime. (Limited benefits are available for unemployed people.) The numbers on welfare fell by 58 per cent between 1996 and 2000.

But the head of the Social Policy Research Centre at UNSW - also named Peter Saunders - said the US reforms were implemented during full-employment years. The test would be evident in the downturn.

"US welfare reform has been successful in moving people from low-income benefits into low-income work," he said. "If we go the American way with welfare we'll have to go the American way with wages and cut at the bottom end."

A spokesperson for Justice Action Mr Tom Cruiser said, "Most welfare recipients are volunteers or help out in other ways like raising taxpayers. Lots of them are disabled, marginalised, poor, disadvantaged or excluded from mainstream work. Some are judged by their age and criminal history forever."

Social Policy Research Centre: "Social policies would have to change to include everyone and then welfare would still be required for the weak, sick and unfortunate people in the community. Government responsibility comes before personal responsibility because the government sets the rules and take the taxes."

Mr Tom Cruiser: "God helps those who help themselves but those people do not have complete control of the environment. The book states that " Only 5 per cent are poor". That's flawed, and definitely depends on what you call poor? Does that statement encourage people to help themselves? "

"Cutting welfare spending does encourage people to help themselves get into jail when they don't make it. Welfare funds don't come from confiscating other people's money. "

"Everything we have ever known is taxed and people on the dole pay it. So by the time they eat, drink, gamble, buy clothes, and raise their family the government has the money back while these people are getting on their feet."

"I didn't mention what the government mined out of the country in royalties and kept for the government to help the community survive did I?"

Everyone wants to get out of 'jail' but 'Framed' wants life

Ron Woodham NSW Commissioner of Corrective Services banned Framed a quarterly magazine by Justice Action to Correctional Centres.

On 2 May 2002, Justice Action received a faxed letter from Manager of DCS Operations Support Branch saying that, in his view, articles in Framed edition #42 'lack balance and integrity' and he is therefore 'not prepared to recommend this issue of Framed for placement in to correctional centre libraries.' Prisoners and those concerned about prisoner issues have very few sources of information.

Framed is one of the most important for inmates of Australian Correctional Centres it is the only magazine giving prisoners a voice.

Framed reports on what's really happening and lets prisoners know that Justice Action is fighting for them. The Magazine goes to the centres in all states except the Northern Territory and they're working on that. Letter from John Klok Senior Assistant Commissioner DCC said" It has come to my attention that Justice Action has been forwarding copies of their recent issue of Framed to individual inmates" Please be advised that the Department has not given its approval to the recent issue of Framed as it contains many misleading, inaccurate and provocative articles."

A spokesperson for Justice Action said "What about the other 41 issues that were sent in to the jail? And what was printed was the truth about Rotten Ron's history of employment. These matters had been dealt with by the authorities like the Royal Commission into prisons etc.

Misleading no! Inaccurate no! Provocative? What article isn't? Therefore the fact that there was an inquiry about Ron Woodham at the time then that would be more likely to be the reason why they (DCS) rejected the issue and not the stated reasons."

Is the Westminster System flawed?

UK: Merseyside The newly inaugurated National Miscarriage of Justice Day took place on 12th October. The first ever gathering to mark the event was held in Liverpool, with over a hundred people in attendance.

Families, friends and supporters of the wrongfully imprisoned came along to share an afternoon of despair, disbelief, solidarity and, eventually, hope. Half a dozen dedicated speakers highlighted specific cases, and held the packed auditorium spellbound with finely detailed accounts of state, police and judicial corruption, lies, manipulation and brutality.

There were scores more campaigners present, each one with heartbreaking stories to tell - unfortunately far too many to instance here. In terms of attendance, this was essentially anaudience from the North West, suggesting that there must be thousands of similar occurrences up and down the country.

To say that miscarriages of justice run to epidemic proportions is no exaggeration.

Michael Davies from the M25 Three and the mother of Michael Hickey, from the Bridgewater Four, were there, as was Don Hale, the campaigner who finally saw Stephen Downing declared innocent of the 'Bakewell Tart' killing. So too were Barbara Stone, the sister of Michael Stone (jailed for the murders of Lyn and Megan Russell), and Paddy Hill of the Birmingham Six.

All of them spoke eloquently and passionately about the disastrous happenings which had overtaken them and members of their families. Each spoke convincingly about the unseen horrors taking place inside the British justice system.For example, there was the ruthless skullduggery surrounding the conviction of Michael Stone, as related by his sister. Barbara Stone has never doubted her brother's innocence. It's a view shared by many legal minds close to the case, despite the fact that Michael lost a recent appeal for a retrial.

For anyone unfamiliar with the circumstances of his conviction (for what were unquestionably heinous killings), there was scant or no material evidence linking him to the crime. He was pronounced guilty almost entirely on the false disclosures of an informant he'd shared a prison cell with while on remand. It was the lies of this grass that cost Michael Stone his freedom.

One day after Michael's conviction, Barbara Stone got a request from this inmate. Out of the blue he asked her to go and see him, and a visit was duly arranged. The stool-pigeon admitted to her unequivocally that he'd told lies, not only about Michael, but about several other prisoners as well - information for which agents of the state had rewarded him handsomely.

The grass gave Barbara names, many names, and said he'd had a bellyfull of stitching people up at the behest of the prosecuting regimes. Now, he said, he wanted to come clean. Above all, he wanted to set the record straight where Michael Stone was concerned.

Barbara was jubilant. At last she'd got the truth from the lips of the man whose connivance with police had put her brother behind bars, perhaps for the rest of his life. It would surely be only a matter of due process and a reasonable amount of time before an enormous wrong would be acknowledged, reversed and put right. Don't you believe it.

Three weeks after Barbara Stone's visit, at which he sang with all the virtuosity of a cage-full of canaries, the grass was silenced. He was dead, found hanging in a cell ill-equipped for acts of suicide. Perhaps wisely, Barbara Stone refrained in Liverpool from outright speculation. She would only say, "I wish I could tell you he had committed suicide.

I can't. I wish I could tell you he didn't commit suicide. I can't. You will have to draw your own conclusions."And that, for the present, remains the awful predicament weighing down on Michael Stone, just one among hundreds, possibly even thousands, of victims of miscarriages of justice, UK-style. As another long-term innocent martyr of the British state, Michael Hickey, said on his acquittal, "being in prison for something you didn't do is like being deaf, dumb and blind." In other words, nobody's listening.

Tellingly, amidst the unusually hushed Liverpool gallery, there were no MPs, journalists from the mainstream media, police or other representatives of the system to explain why things go so very badly wrong, and so often (actually, it mostly begins and ends with police fit-ups).

Nobody was there to tell us what they were doing to put things right. None of the victims we heard about had ever received even the semblance of an apology for the nightmares they and their loved ones had been dragged through.

This of itself, in an era noteworthy for its endemic, ritual establishment malpractice,is bad enough (though perhaps only to be expected, given the class basis of society in general). Infinitely more depressing was the almost total lack of an anarchist presence, or even (it seems) an anarchist interest in this, the first National Miscarriage of Justice Day - even though it had been publicised in Freedom beforehand.

Surely anarchists understand better than most what depths the state and police are capable of plumbing to achieve their ends? So what keeps us at arms length, instead of embracing worthy and needy causes like this? Anarchists simply must leave their enclaves, step outside the debating rooms and engage with people when and where they are really hurting.

Miscarriages of justice are nothing new. More worryingly, they're clearly on the increase. The next victim could be a reader of this newspaper - it's happened more than once in the past. Give it some thought.

We are all too willing to blame corrupt police, but very little penalties have been given out for those crimes. Some of those penalties are also incredibly reduced.

"When there is the commission of a crime (corruption) and no suitable penalty is imposed for that crime, then we have to look deeper to define the hand that meters out penalties in relation to all citizens subject to the law and the law alone and that includes the police, the DPP, Politicians and Government officials at the highest levels.

Murder charge first for DNA data bank link, but not the same as solving the murder

Mass DNA testing of prisoners has [allegedly] led to the first NSW case of a person being charged with a previously unsolved murder as a result of a controversial gene-matching data bank.

[As long as the the prisoners DNA wasn't planted at the crime scene. It is one thing to force prisoners to hand over their DNA and another thing to exploit it.]

The Herald reported 25 Nov 02 "a DNA saliva swab led to the charging of a former prisoner with the bashing murder of a woman. Police had been unable to find any witnesses or suspects following the murder in Sydney's inner city two years ago. Detectives had admitted they faced a tough job finding the killer."

[But that doesn't mean anyone who has been forced to give a DNA swab should be framed.]

Herald: "But now the man has made criminal history in NSW by becoming the first person to be linked to an unsolved homicide through the prison DNA data bank.

During a brief court appearance last week, police did not release any details as to what type of DNA was recovered at the murder scene [allegedly] linking the man to the homicide. Nor were there any details about the unrelated crime for which he had been in prison at the time he provided his DNA sample. His DNA is among almost 13,000 such samples taken from inmates [prisoners] in NSW's 28 jails since January 2000, when the collection scheme was introduced."

[So now police and the ruling class have 13, thousand people that can have their DNA planted at any crime scene and made to look guilty of the crime if they had the finger pointed in their direction i.e. alleged circumstantial evidence to go along with it.]

"Inmates,' [prisoners], DNA is being compared with more than 20,000 samples from unsolved crimes dating back to the 1960s. The "cold storage" DNA ranges from blood, dandruff, hair, sweat, saliva and even skin tissue scrapings found at crime scenes."

Police confirmed yesterday that since the scheme was introduced, inmates' [prisoners], samples had been linked to DNA found at 1254 so-called "cold hit" cases - crimes where police had no clue as to the perpetrator. [Rubbish!]

Michael Strutt a Justice Action consultant on DNA reported "The linking of a former prisoner to an unsolved murder via the NSW DNA database is not the same as solving the murder."

"There are now about 12,000 prisoner DNA samples on the NSW database and about the same number of crime scene samples. Attempting to link them all to each other will result in a massive 144 million attempted matches."

"Although forensic scientists routinely claim accuracy of better than one billion to one in DNA testing the fact is that they mess up the tests more than once in every 100 attempts - so the actual reliability of such testing is nowhere near sufficient for the uses it is being put to by police.

[Regardless, that still doesn't mean that Noble Cause Corruption won't be an element because DNA can be planted at any crime scene. Of course it will be a match if it was taken from the database and matched with live samples 'off' prisoners held in custody' and planted at the scene of any crime.]

Although UK police were then claiming 37 million to one accuracy for their DNA database system it still resulted in the false arrest of Parkinsons sufferer Raymond Easton for a crime he could not possibly have committed. Even if the match in the case is not an error it does not mean that the ex-prisoner is guilty of murder.

There are many reasons that someone's DNA might be found at a crime scene. For example they may have visited the location before the offence took place or their DNA may have been planted in order to incriminate them - something Nick Lisoff has experienced.

Although teenaged sex worker Rebecca Bernauer had been about to give evidence against Kings Cross police in a heroin dealing case, when she turned up murdered police said that to solve the crime they needed to be able to DNA test all men living nearby.

Sure enough, they soon claimed to have found a DNA match to Uraguayan immigrant Louis Pintos-Chaves.

[One such case where luckily his DNA wasn't planted at the crime scene. Or otherwise what chance would he have had? But corrupt NSW police are not stupid either because they would learn from their mistake here and other guilty verdicts, based on DNA could be subsequently planted at the scene of the crime. Then there would be no escape!]

After 18 months in prison, Mr Pintos-Chaves was cleared of the murder, only to be arrested by immigration officials and immediately deported before he could speak to the media.

His visa had expired while he was in prison awaiting trial.

Responsible forensic scientists insist that people should never be convicted on DNA evidence alone, but responsible forensic scientists very rarely get jobs in government labs such as the Division of Analytical Laboratories - which carry out DNA testing for NSW police.

[And people have been convicted based, not only on 'circumstantial' evidence but 'flawed' circumstantial evidence and that means along side 'planted DNA' evidence taken from the database and off the prisoner and 'trial by corporate media' (now with no double jeopardy laws, because the 800 year old law was repealed, (and that was a crime), which means people can be tried over and over and over, not just by the courts but by the MEDIA, who have been linked to the ruling classes 'Noble Cause Corruption' in the interests of say, the TOURIST DOLLAR.

In other words, if say a backpacker was killed that would scare off the tourists and the billions of dollars for the economy. But if the murder was solved those potential tourists would not be so afraid to visit Australia.]

Last year, former Police Minister Paul Whelan told UTS students that they would be 'shocked' if they knew how many innocent people had been convicted with evidence fabricated by corrupt police.

This arrest on a DNA database match does not show that the ex-prisoner committed the unsolved murder or that the NSW police DNA database is solving serious crimes. What these charges show is that the Carr government is pouring resources into DNA testing of cold cases and having people arrested on insufficient evidence while not a single wrongfully convicted prisoner has yet been able to have his case heard by the Innocence Panel.

In some cases, DNA from a prisoner has been linked to more than one cold hit crime scene; for example, a home burglary and an unrelated vehicle theft some months later.

The police DNA data bank has also had 650 matches to "warm hit" crime scenes, where police had suspicions of a person's involvement [or a noble cause?] but had insufficient evidence at the time to convict or compel them to give DNA.

Police would not say how many inmates [prisoners] whose DNA had been matched to crimes had since been charged, but most DNA matches so far related to property crime. The swabbing program has led to charges being laid against a number of inmates [prisoners] - including some released on parole after giving their saliva - for burglary and a burglary-arson in the western suburbs.

The same data bank has cleared about 300 inmates, [prisoners], of suspected involvement in crimes.Three weeks ago, the Government's long-awaited Innocence Panel, chaired by Judge John Nader, began taking applications from serving and former inmates, [prisoners], who believe they were wrongly convicted of serious crimes, such as rape and murder, and that DNA may exist to prove someone else was the perpetrator.

In November, the then police minister, Paul Whelan, revealed the 1999 rape of a 15-year-old girl was among 300 crimes police had drawn links to in the early stages of the DNA testing of prisoners.

[Because the rape of any child compels more people to believe corrupt politicians and police. If it were the rape of a prisoner people would not pay any attention to that rubbish line from Paul Whelan or the Herald Scum who both have an interest in NOBLE CAUSE CORRUPTION.

Lets say police wanted to commit crime? So they now have a tool to blame innocent exploited prisoners. So the wrong person is found guilty and the cop that could have been raping and murdering people gets off scot-free, to rape and kill again! So is there any evidence of police corruption?

Gang-rape, police, disparity and the law..

The New South Wales northern region commander of police defended the handling of an investigation into a lower Hunter police officer, who is facing 38 charges of kidnapping and sexual assault.


So is there any reason the 'general public' don't want the 'real perpetrators' found guilty of their crimes? Then they better be sure that the tools that police use to solve crime are not fabricated or it is you that could be the next victim of a perpetrator that never gets caught and keeps on committing crime in our community.]

Clive Small, NSW Inspector Gadget
NSW Police has revived controversial plans for a specialist discriminative squad to tackle the wave of violent crime that has plagued Sydney's south-west for more than a decade.

Who is bad?
The Hilton bombing (Tim Anderson) these cases presented listeners and readers to endless misconceptions about extraordinary events that were deeply entrenched in the Australian way of life and had to be solved according to the government of the day. After all a picture tells a thousand words it's alleged? And prior that some gun tricks that I never seen on the old western movies.

2,500 crooked detectives? Or a corrupt Government?
Evan Whitton: Either two things occurred. If you said you didn't join the police force to extort money from working girls, your papers were marked 'not suitable for plain clothes' and you were sent back to uniform.

How to become corruption resistant in NSW
Don't trust those who cannot prove themselves with the little amounts of trust you give them. Just because they have a letter of perceived trust doesn't mean they can be trusted.

This is not how you eat 'antisocial behaviour'
Process corruption, perjury, planting of evidence, verbals, fabricated confessions, denial of suspects rights, a solicitor to induce confessions, tampering with electronic recording equipment, framing. Generally green lighting crime, and I say Murder, including the kids who overdosed on heroin. No doubt.

Black Knight - Long way to go home
In line with the current climate of police corruption and the demise of the reform unit set up by Wood, these facts ought to have been a good reason to leave Moroney out of the package as Commissioner.

Bob down and sniff my arse
These are serious invasions of privacy and draconian laws? Where are our democratic soldiers, the lawyers and the barristers who need to take on the government in the courts? Are they plastic? Or to busy feathering their nests? Or have they been cleverly purchased by this black government. Drug test police and politicians, and have the tests independently accessed.

Come in spinner? Or Come in sinner?
"You don't have, in my view very vigilant processes. I suppose it's akin to the problem of corruption within the police," he told the ABC radio. " People say there's corruption with the police (but) do you get the police to investigate problems within their own ranks?

Deeds
I am disturbed by Governments 'actions' in relation to shuffling the police service. Clive Small seconded into Parliament like a cocky in a perch. A breach of the fundamental Separation of Powers Doctrine does not in my view allow the thought of intervening, planning, or shuffling to stack the deck of our police service. The one that suppose to be autonomous according to Lord Denning. Where the Parliamentary Secretary can ask the commissioner of police to 'report' then sack him if he is not satisfied with such report.

Truth
Who is telling the truth? Well I guess Dr. Ed. Chadbourne or Mr. Peter Ryan may have the answer to that. Dr. Chadbourne sacked by Peter Ryan and more specifically in my view because he elected deputy commissioners Dave Madden and Andrew Scipione as the best men in the service in relation to his qualifications to make a recommendation in his capacity as human resources.That is if you believe that a Dr. can be corrupted.

Honesty
What is happening between the Police Service and politics is quite extraordinary at the moment. If stand over tactics don't work tell half the truth honestly and follow the example of sheep. Another word for it is sleaze, yeah. Another word for it is workplace harassment. Another word for it is bribing a Police Officer. Another word for it is misleading Parliament.

Tele Tales
Most people I know don't buy the Daily Telegraph. Why? Because of the lies and propaganda purported by them.

Lord Denning
Interesting how a member of the Police Board Mr. Tim Priest would hold grave fears for his safety from dangerous senior police but fails to name them or have them sacked. Rather Priest resigns as if he had no powers. Could that mean what he was saying is that the Governments are also corrupt?

Corrosive
Clive Small is Bob Carr's choice for the new Police Commissioner. It could only be the case considering his, Small's special appointment into Parliament House. Small who suffers from the little person syndrome is the ideal bend over boy who gets shuffled through his corrupt actions. Rolling the legal system for him after the fact, just like his predecessor Roger the dodger Rogerson.

Black Nexus
The Separation of Powers Doctrine is nowcontaminated witharangeofcolours, now leaving us with a black shirt on a once blue bridge that crossed that thin blue line. The 'Amery and Woodham show'.

Same boat
The Premier, Bob Carr, relies on a militia. A gang of bikies and our Police Service, to show all of us he is no murderer. He should be taken to the task along with his partners in crime like Clive Small to account for those people who like my self have been maliciously assaulted and who have complained, without any service and those who cannot speak for themselves who were murdered, like Terry Falconer. Terry murdered in custody.

Good Cop
Why have our democratic institutions broken down? It's not just the criminal justice system. The Anti-Corruption Network webmaster@anti-corruption-network.org exposes the same issues. A group of white-collar workers who say they have suffered as follows:

Dangerous
I refer to the Daily Telegraph article 22 March 2002 under the heading Priest quits advisory job.

Partners in crime - history!
Roger Rogerson, the old hero, who never faced a result in the Warren Lanfranchi, or Sally-Anne Huckstepp murders, was let off in my opinion when the New South Wales Government rolled the legal system (deciding what evidence to give the police prosecutor) to have the jury believe the illusion they (the Government wanted to create).
