Former copper kidnaps and rapes 10 year old (allegedly) - Commission rules that police violence that leads to serious and permanent head injuries is 'reasonable' - more police lies on the de Menezes killing in London by terrorist police officers - NSW Police Association criticise A30 Opera House cost of policing - Victorian Police stuff up traffic tickets (again).As teams of thugs with guns on their hips gear up for their protest against democratic dissent at Circular Quay, Sydney, on Tuesday, the thugs have been showing their true character nationally and overseas.
Former copper Christopher Ronald White has been arrested for sexually abusing a 13 year old girl in Thailand, according to the August 25 Bangkok Post.
The former senior constable kept the girl as a sex slave for 3 years, beginning her abuse at the age of 10.
His trial is expected soon.
Elsewhere, the ABC's 7.30 Report paid a visit to an old story which was broadcast in April, about a young Queenslander named Sam Hogan.
Sam was taken into police custody and mysteriously ended up with massive and permanent brain injuries.
He had been earlier been sprayed with capsicum spray and placed in a 'neck restraint.'
The ever-vigilant Queensland Crime and Misconduct Commission has found that the massive and permanent brain injuries were not the result of unreasonable force.
In the words of the Commission, 'The arrest of Samuel Hogan was lawful and the force used was not excessive.'
In the word's of Sam's mother, Leslee Hogan, 'I think the report represents a gross miscarriage of justice and I just wonder how many people have to die or be grievously harmed before police get more than a rap over the knuckles.'
So, lets give the thugs more powers. ABC News Online on August 25 reports that the Tasmanian Opposition has called for new laws allowing random (ie, blanket) searching on TT-Line passengers. Heaven help us.
In other news, even more lies have been discovered about the killing of de Menezes in London by terrorist police, go to More lies from the British police on the de Menezes murder
The NSW Police Association has questioned why the so-called user-pays system, whereby organisers foot the bill for a police presence, was not being used for the Forbes conference, according to a Police Association spokesperson who was critical of the funding arrangements, on Thursday August 25,
AND, the poor bloody stupid and corrupt police in Victoria have received another ticking off, with the Victorian opposition calling for a review of the speed camera network following 119 infringements being sent out incorrectly, according to an August 25 AAP story.

Australia's Political Underworld...And their enforcers
The promotion of law and order means money to big business. Profits from insurance, security fixtures, patrol services and the like can only continue to grow if the perceived threat of uncontrollable crime wave escalates.

Chess in the court (rolling the legal system).
