Bent Cops & Lawyers

[weagannuh]

I was looking through the net and came across this, I was shocked and appauled.

Please Read Part 1

FEATURED COPS

This section, and it is huge, looks at cases, dirty cops and what the Police do not like you to see about themselves.

I will not bore you with their claims of unfairness on my part and the denials they continually issue to cover up their malpractice. They are at the moment enjoying mass coverage on TV programmes showing how wonderful they are, but some time ago we applied to a commercial TV station to present them with a show on ' corruption in the police force ' it was turned down. Firstly they gave the reason it was bad for business, then on the grounds it would sour relations. It also came about that the police would only take part if they could have a script and cases they were willing to discuss (we would be forbidden to ask anything they did not like or unexpectedly put to them of an embarrassing nature) We said no, as this would not get a proper response on air especially to cases they would prefer not to discuss. So they have declined in favour of the image they prefer to be fed to the public, the propaganda and the lie they perpetuate like the Judiciary and Lawyers. It appears that ' unaccountability ' wins.

There is so much material to cover and volumes already compiled that we will first begin with recent news items such as the 742 Police Officers arrested and another item by the Liberal Democrats announcing that 1,063 police officers have criminal records and are serving officers in the police. This might shock, but it is a fact the tip of the iceberg and not a full picture of police corruption --- it goes much deeper than those figures and encompasses all ranks -- as you will see if you go to ' The Bent Cops' list, which is just a snapshot of what we have in our files.

' BRIBERY AND CORRUPTION -- THE DAWNING OF BENT COPS '

We begin with THE BRIBERY SCANDAL OF 1877. Although the Police Force was in it's formative years and malpractice was a regular event, the conviction of four senior officers for taking bribes caused the public to doubt the integrity of a force that should have been law abiding. Paymaster and tycoon, a man called Benson, paid the officers to inform him of raids and if necessary, make evidence disappear.

Benson was an ingenious swindler. He teamed up with 'racing swindler ' William Kurr and together they issued ' Le-Sport ' which included many references to the wealthy Mr. Yonge who lived in a mansion on Shanklin, the Isle-of-Wight. Many bookies suspected Yonge and the unusual large winnings at the race course. Benson knew Yonge personally. Yonge was a trickster and he chose victim Comtesse de Goncourt for a swindle acting as the betting agent using an alias. Madame de Goncourt invested £10,000, and that was the last she saw of it. William Kurr enlisted Chief Inspector John Meiklejohn and paid him not to investigate or derail investigations into previous swindles. Second police officer Chief Inspector Nathaniel Druscovich was in financial difficulties, Meiklejohn introduced him to Kurr, who now had two cops on his payroll, this was soon followed by a third cop - Chief Inspector William Palmer. Meiklejohn warned Benson and Kurr that nosey cop Chief Inspector Clarke was getting ready to pounce. Yonge entered the plan, and got Clarke to visit him on the Isle - of - Wight. He told Clarke he had information. This turned later and Yonge said he'd paid £50 to Clarke. Clarke was trapped, he'd been to Yonge's several times on invites - they were both brother freemasons. A villain, Walters also said he had bribed Clarke and had a letter proving it. All four cops ended up on trial along with Benson and William Kurr (plus a lawyer). Wealthy businessman and Freemason Yonge escaped, he was too powerful to bring down.

DETECTIVE JOHN MEIKLEJOHN, CHIEF INSPECTOR NATHANIEL DRUSCOVICH, CHIEF INSPECTOR WILLIAM PALMER and CHIEF INSPECTOR CLARKE were committed for trial.



From this beginning, the police were never able to shake off corruption, its smell never escaped the corridors of power even though some introduced 'sweeping' and 'special teams' to eradicate it --- they were not successful, and never have been. All such investigations have been 'cosmetic' and ' a publicity stunt' in order to allay public fears. Its success lies in honesty and accountability, and that cannot be achieved even now.



' THE DRUG SQUAD/OBSCENE PUBLICATION SQUAD TRIALS '

THE 1960's and an emerging pattern of corruption in the police.

1963 saw the sensational trial of the corrupt and vicious career of Detective Sergeant Harry Challenor. The papers centred on the madness he showed before going on trial and this helped to cloud many truths of certain squads. The convenience of this state helped other bent cops and the public were led to believe that he was just ' one rotten apple.'

DETECTIVE SGT CHALLENOR was perceived as a paranoid schizophrenic, and termed as ' a bullying and treacherous policeman' (as they would have us believe?). But there were undeniable suspicions the top brass used smear campaigns to full use, in order to throw off and deflect suspicion on themselves and other police officers. It was obviously better to do this than allow the public to believe there may be widespread corruption in the force -- but this would have been so if the public had been aware of three other officers on trial with him were being sent to jail for conspiracy to pervert the course of justice. The Press were actively if not covertly, encouraged to concentrate their stories on Challenor -- and unfortunately -- they did, and the three other convicted officers quietly left the court for a journey to prison by the back-door so-to-speak. Amid the furore of ' a crazy cop' little was said or printed about the police manipulating and twisting evidence to get convictions -- using criminal records on other people, who were particularly vulnerable, to beef up a thin case when they were quite aware they lacked real evidence.

1969 saw enquiries into the Lancashire Drugs Squad and six detectives were committed for trial.

THREE ENQUIRIES were going at once.

Two Senior Officers were arrested - Commander Wallace Virgo and Commander Kenneth Drury.

1973 saw Deputy Assistant Commissioner Gilbert Kelland whose inquiry led to 20 officers being dismissed.

After appointing Detective Chief Superintendent Bill Moody, Jimmy Humphreys a major pornographer was arrested. 40 officers were arrested after Humphreys Diary was found.

1976 - After police officers from the Obscene Publications Squad were seen to be too friendly with ' the dirty books brigade ' 15 police officers of Drugs and Pornography went to trial.



' OPERATION COUNTRYMAN --- THE FAILED ATTEMPT '

We now come forward to OPERATION COUNTRYMAN of 1971 to 1977. This was the biggest investigation into police corruption ever mounted, It was flawed from the start, and was headed by different Investigators. They found police uncooperative, and police officers being on leave when they were due to be interviewed. Some were being tipped off and others left. Well over 100 police were in the frame, but the Government pulled the funding and it collapsed before a conclusion could be reached.

During the four years Sir Robert Mark held the position of Police commissioner, 478 police officers left following, or in anticipation of criminal proceedings.

THE ROTTEN ORCHARD - a book by criminal John Mc Vicar was about to see the light of day. It was written in conjunction with Laurie Cork, an ex-flying Squad member. McVicar wanted to tape record his memoirs involving bent cops and Cork was helping substantiate incidents. Things fell apart between them when Cork found out McVicar had been recording with a second tape recorder strapped to his ankle. Cork would cease the accounts of police misconduct on the main tape recorder when it became too personal, and that's when McVicar turned on the secret tape recorder. Cork obtained an injunction on the publishing of the book when he saw extracts published in the Daily Express. The book was never published?

One would have thought these events should have changed police actions, and that they had learnt from them. But no,, they got better at it, and it was not just the City of London Police, Manchester Police, the West Midlands Crime Squad would be the next big story in Police Corruption. The disease was spreading throughout the whole police organisation. As one retired officer told me, and he wasn't clean either, ' if two or three officers are nicked in a sting, there are dozens of others who knew about it and turned a blind eye. This idea about one bent officer is ludicrous, the others get away with it because of a lack of evidence, and they know it.'



' The Corruption Investigations of police in 1998 '

43 POLICE FORCES THROUGHOUT THE UK HAD OFFICERS FACING DISHONESTY CHARGES AND CORRUPTION - as stated in a 'TIMES SURVEY ' and the Home Secretary at the time - Jack Straw - said this alarming situation of crooked police posed a great risk to justice. Many of the charges concerned drugs, misuse of police information, perverting the course of justice and assaults. The survey revealed that it just didn't occur at constable level with a few sergeants, it also mentioned superintendents, chief inspectors and high ranking detectives. In the light of this they said a new unit was to be formed called CIB3, and that would be assigned to root out corruption. Ten years on -- and there has been no significant cases as a result of these findings -- and are we surprised? NO.



' The mystery surrounding the killing of Blair Peach by police '

IN 1979 TEACHER AND PROTESTOR BLAIR PEACH WAS KILLED BY POLICE UNLAWFULLY. No police officer was charged with his death and the whole affair has been kept a secret for thirty years. The Met Police say that the facts will be revealed soon, but we doubt that very much. Blair Peach was murdered in Southall at the hands of the SPECIAL PATROL GROUP ---( they were involved in the beating up of the Holloway boys and thirty officers refused to give information regarding corrupt officers). One man in charge -- Inspector Alan Murray was blamed for the circumstances in which several un-named officers clubbed the man to death. He claims to this day it was too confusing at the time and denies involvement. He admits people were assaulted and thrown down flights of stairs by his officers and regrets this. The DPP now CPS said no to prosecuting any officers at the time and covered the incident in a 'secrecy tag' and files have been held in secrecy until now - thirty years after the event.

APRIL 2010 - It has now been officially revealed that an unidentified police officer did kill Blair Peach despite the many denials, and that many police officers on that day and involved lied about their accounts of what happened in order to cover-up the incident.



' The Guildford Four Case '

This case was notorious in that it resulted in a huge payout for the four who were jailed for a total of 15 years based upon lies and dishonesty of the police. Three detectives were sent to jail for conspiring to pervert the course of justice: CHIEF INSPECTOR THOMAS STYLE, POLICE SERGEANT JOHN DONALDSON and CONSTABLE VERNON ATTWELL. To say or pretend these officers acted alone is absurd, but that's what the police want you to believe.

' Police and the Climbie Case '

Six Police Officers faced disciplinary proceedings for neglect of duty. The six worked in the Child Protection Unit at Brent and Haringey, London. The blame for mishandling the case mainly fell on the junior officers, and resulted in the senior officers able to comfortably sidestep issues.



' The James Ashley Case and Police ' - The Sussex Cops

The un-armed Mr. Ashley was killed by Police Constable Sherwood of the East Sussex Constabulary in Hastings. The Police Squad were on a drugs raid, but none were found. Pc. Sherwood got off all charges and three senior officers walked away too. Charges were dropped with the explanation ' There are wider corporate laws to consider ?'

' Sussex Officer is charged with manslaughter '

POLICE CONSTABLE CHRISTOPHER SHERWOOD was charged over the fatal shooting of a man in Hastings after a raid on a house. The incident sparked fury and led to the suspension of Police Chief Paul Whitehouse.

FOUR OTHER POLICE OFFICERS were charged with misconduct in public office relating to the shooting incident.



The Sussex Police were also involved in an incident when two Police Constables beat up a Michael Smith and were withdrawn from duty; again in Hastings.

MAN TO SUE SUSSEX POLICE after being acquitted of charges - Russell Bishop spent a year in jail due to police evidence launched against him at ' The Babes in the Wood Trial' It took a jury just ten minutes to find him not guilty at his trial. He now plans to sue The Sussex Police for wrongful Arrest and Malicious Prosecution.

Another case involving the Sussex Police came to light when they handcuffed and detained Gregory Nash over a £20 unpaid fine. He was taken by Chichester Police to Dover in a police vehicle and put in a cell until the fine was paid. The cost to taxpayers was huge. 'Wasting Police Time comes to mind, and they certainly did.

Another Sussex Police Incident involved a young man who was stopped 39 times in one year. One officer even asked him after they had pulled him over ' Are you wanted?'

162 complaints of assault were lodged against the Sussex police according to a report in July 2008.

SUSSEX - Worthing Police, topped the list of shame in respect of police misconduct in 2008, since the year 2005 they have increased with allegations of oppressive behaviour and failures in duty. The police attempted to justify this with the following comments ' we believe that a great deal of the increase is attributable to changes in the way we record complaints in Sussex -- this doesn't mean we received the highest number of complaints out of all the forces.'

2006 - 428 COMPLAINTS, 2007 - 774 COMPLAINTS and another rise in 2008.

SUSSEX POLICE came in for more criticism (which they seem to brush aside lightly these days) over the fact during police chases they killed people for a second time within a week. A pensioner was fatally wounded during a police chase in Copthorne, West Sussex. A man from Brighton died in Lancing whilst being pursued by the cops. Although these incidents have been reported to the IPCC do not expect much of a result or any prosecutions of officers --- it rarely happens.

SUSSEX POLICE TO BE SUED - Beauty Queen Linda Watson approached lawyers in a bid to sue the Sussex Police for £1million in damages following the botched investigation into the murder of her wealthy husband - when they accuse her of hiring a hitman in a malicious prosecution. After walking free from the Old Bailey, she vowed to sue police for all the trouble they had caused plus the distress.

The Sussex Constabulary

A recent look at the Sussex Police Authority handout --- newspaper goes way too far in promoting the force as being highly successful. Considering we have reported on the complaints issue in that they top the league, one can see that they ignore this completely and pretend that corruption does not exist within the force despite the many cases we have cited so far.

' Sussex Cop in Money-laundering case '

POLICEMAN DARREN GRAVEMARK is currently on trial concerning a matter of drugs and money laundering it was said on a recent news report. It appears that his money-laundering activities concern his drugs partner and at the moment the SUSSEX POLICE are remaining silent about this matter.

SUSSEX COPS IN ASSAULT COVER-UP --- Five cops including a Sergeant were moved to other duties after an assault on a man went wrong. The Police were not named and they refused to discuss the case to reporters, only that it appears to have been over a motoring incident. Since the incident there has been a 'close down of all information' and the CPS were unwilling to provide any further information.

' West Sussex Cops in assault attack '

TWO WEST SUSSEX POLICEMEN -- Constable Andrew Watson and Constable Iain Pearce were seen beating up a man who was a suspect thief -- the witness was a trainee police constable Darren Nagle, who had been with the force for eight months was shocked to see colleagues carrying out the assault. The trainee police officer was giving evidence at Haywards Heath Magistrates against colleagues who had assaulted the 17yr old suspect.

WEST SUSSEX COPS IN FREEBIES FROM MACDONALD'S

West Sussex cops have been told they will face disciplinary action over accepting free burgers from a MacDonald's restaurant. The Deputy Chief Constable Mark Jordan stated that it destroyed an officer's integrity and could possibly be seen by the public as a sort of bribe for any possible favours that may arise out of this situation. Apart from that he said it broke the force's disciplinary code that forbids accepting gratuities without the proper consent.

SUSSEX COPS FIDDLE THE CRIME FIGURES YET AGAIN

More rubbish was doled out yet again via the Chichester News about falling crime rates in Sussex in their July to August free paper. As we once stated in RELATED TOPICS newpaper reporters are not exactly honest or accurate as said by Nick Davies in his damning investigation into the newspaper industry - in his book 'Flat Earth News' which The Chichester News ought to read sometime. Crime figures from a force that came out as the worst and most often complained about Constabulary (which can be seen on this page) have to be viewed as a lie or fiction created by them in the face of rising attacks and crime in East and West Sussex in general.

THREE COPS IN FATAL SHOOTING WALK FREE --- SUPERINTENDENT CHRIS BURTON, INSPECTOR KEVIN FRENCH and INSPECTOR CHRISTOPHER SIGGS of the Sussex Constabulary were originally suspended and charged with the manslaughter of James Ashley in St. Leonards, near Hastings. A fourth officer had already been suspended -- POLICE CONSTABLE CHRIS SHERWOOD. A whitewash was claimed as these officers walked away without any charge. Some sources say the investigation was hampered by senior legal chiefs and the Chief Constable, who remarkably left his post in a resignation.

SUSSEX COPS ISSUE LIE TO GO IN AND TAKE JAMES ASHLEY -- Just before the shooting police made references and statements to the fact they went to Ashley's residence on the suspicion he stabbed a person, but it emerged later in the inquiry that ' there was no evidence to indicate that Mr.Ashley had carried out the stabbing referred to ' and this was said by the investigation officer Tony Williams who claimed he'd been aware of various references which either stated or implied this was so.

MAN TO SUE SUSSEX COPS after horrific swoop when Sussex Police in Chichester fully armed with automatic pistols mistook visitor martin Kelly to be an armed robber. Martin, a visitor from the West Midlands attending a christening was thrown to the ground after leaving a pub in Chichester and subsequently handcuffed. When it was eventually discovered they had made a mistake, they didn't even apologise said Martin who is going to sue for compensation.

' Assault Officer to be Sentenced '

SUSSEX POLICE OFFICER CARL CHIVERALL was found guilty of Common Assault when he appeared at Haywards Heath Magistrates Court. The Officer was on duty with the Sussex Roads Policing Unit at Polegate. He is due back in court at Crawley Magistrates in September to be sentenced.

ABUSE INSPECTOR IS REPORTED -- Sussex Cop DETECTIVE INSPECTOR KEVIN MOORE found himself in trouble when he flew into a rage and hurled abuse at a constable after he sent off four members of his team at a soccer match. The Detective Chairman of Eastbourne Town was reported for bringing the game into disrepute and using foul language and abuse.

' Police pay damages to Football Manager after raid '

CHICHESTER POLICE (SUSSEX CONSTABULARY) paid £1,000 to Harry Redknapp the Portsmouth Football Manager after a dawn raid on his home. The Judge ruled the raid as unlawful and were ordered to pay £10,000 costs along with the settlement.

SUSSEX WOMAN COP TIPS OFF SUSPECT -- Woman Police Constable Grania Hale of Newbury is to appear before Maidstone Crown Court on Misconduct Charges. She was a member of the Sussex Police Haywards Heath Neighbourhood Response Team. She has been suspended and cannot enter East or West Sussex in her bail conditions. It is stated that she tipped off a suspect about a police raid.

' Shoplifting charge Detective commits suicide '

DETECTIVE CHIEF INSPECTOR JIM TORBET of the SUSSEX POLICE was found dead just hours before he was due to answer bail in connection with the theft of wine from a supermarket. Both he and colleague CHIEF INSPECTOR SHARON ROWE were to appear on the theft charges.

It is interesting to note that this case fizzled out, making the police very happy -- as no further disclosures were made and the truth was as usual; concealed and hidden from the public.

' Off-Duty Sussex Cop gets off causing death charge '

POLICE CONSTABLE STEWART CHALMERS of the Sussex Constabulary walked away free after an internal investigation threw out charges of causing death by careless driving, The cop killed Luke Bland when he lost control of his car. Strangely, and it is routine procedure, an outside force was not called in to investigate this matter, and the Sussex Police took it upon themselves to decide the outcome of this case?

' Sussex Cop of Six Years is jailed over Child Porn Charges '

ACTING POLICE SERGEANT PHILIP SAVIDGE appeared at Lewes Crown Court on 42 charges. It was heard that the Sussex Policeman had 54,323 images of child sex acts etc, that he stored and exchanged with other men on the Internet. It was stated that 1,681 images were prohibited and considered in the extreme catagory. The cop who was stationed at East Grinstead had been a policeman for six years and had achieved rank of Sergeant. In court he said ' It all got out of hand ' It was also revealed he helped out at a young boys club. He was jailed for a period of 27 months.





' THE ENFIELD CRIME SQUAD SCANDAL '

It's being heralded as ' The biggest police scandal in decades'. It started with a report in February saying that NINE POLICE OFFICERS were suspended from the Enfield Crime Squad. TWO MORE OFFICERS were placed on restrictive duties and the others suspected of ' mishandling of property.'

However, the situation has been discovered to be far worse and SIX OFFICERS have been accused of ' torture to suspects ' assault and falsifying evidence. It is said that the Officers were on drugs raids when these offences occurred. This kind of behaviour by police was claimed to be ' no more' and will never happen again. All six officers including a DETECTIVE SERGEANT are now under a corruption investigation, which includes theft by police and fabricating evidence against suspects.

However, we can reveal more about THE ENFIELD POLICE, that would have pointed to something rotten being in place a lot earlier, which was ignored by the Met. This same station were involved in a little known incident involving Police Constable Jackson 214 and Police Constable Dale 220, and Police Inspector Dewale who actively stonewalled inquiries into why these two officers were trying to fit up a motorist on the North Circular. The two officers maintained their authority until they found out that they had been 'taped ' by the motorist, at which point they hurried away. Inspector Dewale would not cooperate and was reported under the complaints procedure at Finchley Police Station. Nothing more was heard of this, it was suppressed.



' Zero Tolerance Middlesbrough Force falls '

THE CLEAN-UP CLEVELAND FORCE LED BY RAY MALLON IS HIT BY SUSPENSIONS - Three more officers suspended on accusations of corruption now bring the total up to 7 officers suspended and moved from the CID after two defendents changed their pleas at a trial. Ray Mallon the chief of the CID himself was also suspended following investigations into corruption in the Cleveland Police Force. The force once big on the 'values in Society kick ' heavily promoted by Ray Mallon on TV to boost confidence in the police, has miserably backfired on the officer who thought spinning a line was enough to make the police look good.

CLEVELAND COP DETECTIVE SERGEANT JOHN McPHERSON was removed from CID duties.

CLEVELAND CID COP DETECTIVE CONSTABLE ANDREW SHEPHERD was removed from duty.

OFFICERS DETECTIVE CONSTABLE BRENDAN WHITEHEAD and DETECTIVE CONSTABLE SEAN ALLEN were also suspended from the Cleveland CID after an inquiry into the alleged supply of heroin to a drug addict prisoner by two cops.



' Jack Straw says Police must stop policing themselves - 2000 '

It is indeed a kind of mockery when one considers that Jack Straw, home secretary in 2000 said that the police should not investigate themselves. He claimed that complaints against police should be done by an independent body. Yet, in the same year he claimed that the police were 'cooking the books'. Crime figures were being manipulated and down-played he said in order to confuse the public and make it seem like crime was being reduced effectively.



' The Corruption that never goes away '

DESPITE 800 POLICE OFFICERS FORCED TO LEAVE and a Commander jailed, the clean up of corruption leaves a lot to be desired. Using a dirty cloth to remove the stains only leads to a murky patch that waits to be whitewashed over or ignored as something permanent and part of the design. The Infamous porn squad was disbanded due to the discovery of top senior officers in the unit having links to Soho sleaze bosses who bribed them. Even the setting up of new squads to tackle that problem only led to cracks and more revelations about bent cops emerging in the new 'clean up' The former 'Operation Countryman' cost £4million and failed as we have already mentioned - its conviction rate on bent cops was abysmal despite the uncovering of hundreds of likely suspects who obstructed the investigation. In the 90's ' Operation Jackpot' was launched to combat corruption -- two officers were jailed and another caught in a £2million cannabis ring. JOHN DONALD a Senior Officer of the Regional Crime Squad was caught selling secrets to underworld crime leaders and was jailed for 11 years. A score of other officers were investigated but never charged despite rumours of around 250 officers taking payments from crime bosses being publicly talked about and boasted about by cops in Scotland Yard.





' We don't have corruption says Devon & Cornwall Chief Constable?'

It would be fine if this was true, but it isn't. And what you read next certainly questions that, and it is but a snapshot of the real problem. DEVON AND CORNWALL POLICE have the following - FIVE POLICE OFFICERS were found guilty of falsifying accident reports when they raced and crashed police cars. POLICE SERGEANT David Baker was given 3 months for deception. SEVEN POLICE OFFICERS were arrested for perverting the course of justice in a corruption Inquiry. POLICE CONSTABLE Colin Doyle was found guilty of a child sex attack. POLICE CONSTABLE Chris Vercoe was fined for assault. DETECTIVE INSPECTOR D. King was fined for speeding (120 mph). POLICE CONSTABLE Paul Mason committed suicide after an inquiry into an assault on Mr. David Coker, he said that Officer Hepburn had done the assault.---PC Mason was accused of framing fellow officer Bryan Hepburn according to a report, and was to give witness testimony against him. Five other officers were involved, and a payout of £45,000 was made to the victim. Hepburn remained with the police despite the controversy surrounding the assault. TWO un-named officers faced a 'failed disciplinary' hearing over the shooting of Mr. Fitzgerald-Hay, a farmer. The incident at Barnstaple revealed THREE DETECTIVES who colluded and conspired to hide the truth. POLICE CONSTABLE WHITE 3834, POLICE CONSTABLE MITCHELL 3536, and POLICE CONSTABLE HOGG 4077 all claimed innocence to a 'lie' they perpetrated about a stolen motor vehicle that was not stolen? They denied oppressive conduct and misconduct. POLICE SERGEANT DAVID MOORE was demoted after being convicted of assault. DEVON POLICE SUED for injury to Mr. Sylvester as a result of a police chase. POLICE CONSTABLE PETER FARQUARSON, WPC JAYNE HUMPHRIES, DETECTIVE CONSTABLE CHRIS RIGGS were convicted of perverting the course of justice. POLICE CONSTABLE ANDREW DANIEL killed two sisters in high speed chase.

' Former Cop get six years for Robbery '

EX-POLICEMAN DAVID COX of Launceston appeared before Truro Crown Court of robbing £4,090 from Paula Edwards at the Midland Bank in Launceston. The cop from Helstone, Camelford, terrified the cashier as he pointed a imitation semi-automatic pistol at the female cashier in the robbery demanding cash. It was said in court that this all resulted from him being very depressed after leaving the police force?

SPECIAL CONSTABLE JANE WAKEFIELD appeared before Exmouth Magistrates on fraud charges. It was stated that she fraudulently claimed benefit of £2,804 from the DHSS thus making false representation in order to defraud the state whilst in work and being supported by her husband lorry driver. She was given 18 months probation and 70 hours community service.

DEVON COPS IN BRAWL - Cops from the Devon and Cornwall Police threw punches and brawled with CPS staff at a Christmas bash in Plymouth. It said an internal inquiry was launched after two police officers came to blows during the get together. A policeman was asked to leave, but then a fight broke out among the party goers.

COPS DISMISSED OVER SEX AND BOOZE PARTY ANTICS -- Police Constables Darby Allen and Pc Tim Eden based at Heavitree Road Police Station, Exeter, were dismissed from the Devon & Cornwall Police after a late night romp involving 20 special constables in a training course went wrong.

' Suspect framed by Devon & Cornwall Police '

THE POLICE COMPLAINTS AUTHORITY gave the Appeal Judges a report that papers relating to the murder case from the initial trial were ' stolen' from Exeter Crown Court by officers from the Devon and Cornwall Police. Brian Parsons spent 11 years in prison for the crime, which he did not commit after police on the case constructed a false case. It was suggested that evidence was planted by an over-zealous and dishonest police officer.

' Cop steals from Social Club '

POLICE CONSTABLE ROY MILLER of the Devon and Cornwall Police appeared before Torbay Magistrates on charges of theft. The cop, a treasurer of the Exeter Police Social Club admitted to taking £1,250 who was based at Tiverton Police Station was remanded in custody so he could be sentenced at Exeter Crown Court.

' Cop is finally charged after nine years '

COP NICHOLAS STONE who served with the Devon and Cornwall Police managed to evade charges and even get a Chief Constable's Commendation in 2003, before moving to the Avon and Somerset Police. Whilst with the Devon force he raped a woman, and is now due to face trial in Exeter: see Avon and Somerset Police section.

' Cop on sick leave runs and jumps about on TV Game Show '

DEVON AND CORNWALL POLICEWOMAN LESLEY HART is off work due to stress, and was allowed sick-leave, but soon appeared in Argentina on the all physical and mentally demanding BBC Total Wipeout game seen by millions. It now transpires she is suing the Devon and Cornwall Police because they did not offer her enough help to return to work. The Police Force declined to comment as they say it is an ongoing legal matter that will be settled in the High Court.

' Crime Squad Detective arrested over porn '

DETECTIVE CONSTABLE GRAHAM FLYNN of THE DEVON & CORNWALL POLICE was arrested after ordering hard porn videos on the Internet. Computer equipment was seized at his home after customs officers intercepted a package ordered by the Crime Squad Cop. He was suspended pending further investigations.

' Police Sergeant fiddles expenses for son '

DEVON AND CORNWALL POLICE SERGEANT DAVID BAKER defrauded his force out of £1,400 in university grants for his son. Baker received a suspended sentence of three months jail after he admitted to charges of deception.



So no corruption there, eh?





' ANOTHER POLICE CORRUPTION SCANDAL THAT SHOULDN'T SURPRISE '

FIVE POLICE DETECTIVES of the now disgraced South eastern Regional Crimes Squad have been jailed after selling confiscated drugs seized in raids. DETECTIVE CONSTABLE ROBERT CLARK, DETECTIVE SERGEANT CHRISTOPHER DRURY, DETECTIVE CONSTABLE THOMAS KINGSTON, DETECTIVE THOMAS REYNOLDS and DETECTIVE SERGEANT TERENCE O'CONNELL. Another detective turned queens evidence in exchange for a lenient sentence was co-conspirator DETECTIVE CONSTABLE NEIL PUTMAN. Scotland Yard once again pledged to rid the force of corruption as they have done so many times before?

Commander Hayman vowed that their pals would be scrutinized and backgrounds of the jailed cops. Again we hear that these officers were 'first class detectives with commendations and bravery honours' -- which really means nothing, --- these cops were bent, and so were a number of colleagues who kept silent in return for favours -- they will never be exposed once the story fades from public view.



' One year earlier Condon removes 20 Detectives in corruption probe '

Police Commissioner Paul Condon with his elite anti-corruption squad rooted out twenty detectives after discovering malpractice in the Met. The activities of these officers included fraud, drug allegations, misbehaviour and impropriety.



' Man takes Police Chief Commissioner to Court '

BANKRUPTING the Metropolitan Police Commissioner was tempting enough as a reason to pursue his claim. Director Michael Alt had been a victim of a £97 penalty by the police for parking, but the meter was found not have been working properly. Michael sued the Commissioner for repayment of the £97 and won when the police ignored the court and failed to appear. The case was not even contested so an order was made against the Police Commissioner, but he ignored the court and the money was not paid. Michael went back to court again and was immediately granted another order against the chief for £297, but that too was ignored by the police. Michael returned to court again and took out a garnishee order demanding the police chief turn up at court. The Judge assured Mr.Alt that if the chief ignored the court again, the court would without fail, deduct the increasing amount from the Commissioner's bank account.



' The Wolfpack Probe -- and the Derbyshire Police '

SERGEANT LOUIS MARTIN, SERGEANT DAVID SIMMONDS, and POLICE CONSTABLE IAIN PARKER were charged with assault and submitting false statements. It is reported that these three ran a police brutality squad in the city and up to being arrested were completely unchallenged. The called themselves ' the wolfpack ' and all three appeared before Chesterfield Magistrates Court.



' THE OLD BAILEY - 12 Police Officers - all committed for trial '

Court 6 was busy with four un-named cops on trial.

Court 8 was busy with DETECTIVE CONSTABLE AUSTIN WARNES who admitted conspiracy to pervert the course of justice, his co-defendants were in court 6. Warnes was accused of a plot to plant drugs on a mother so that the husband could get custody of their sons.

Court 11 was busy with POLICE CONSTABLE DAVID EVANS, DETECTIVE CONSTABLE CHRISTOPHER CARTER, and DETECTIVE CONSTABLE LEONARD GERRARD all charged with the theft of ecstasy tablets. The drugs with a street value of £500,000 (40,000 tablets), were to be sold on the streets to junkies and pushers.

Court 17 was busy with POLICE CONSTABLE ANDREW WIGLEY and POLICE CONSTABLE SIMON WILSON, both charged with aggravated assault and attempting to pervert the course of justice. Wigley was accused of helping Wilson to cover up the crime by falsifying his notes.

Court 18 was busy with POLICE CONSTABLE RICHARD SAMS and WOMAN POLICE CONSTABLE PATRICIA McGOVERN who were charged with false imprisonment and attempting to pervert the course of justice. They are said to have stopped a motorist late at night and said he was in the bus lane. An arrest followed in which Constable Sams assaulted the man occasioning actual bodily harm. This latter charge was added to the other charges the constable faced.

This was just one day in co



' Unlawful Arrest led to three police officers being dismissed '

THE MANCHESTER POLICE CONSTABLE MATT PERCIVAL, POLICE CONSTABLE JOHN DAVIES and POLICE CONSTABLE PAUL PRESTON were found guilty of an abuse of authority, falsehood, and neglect of duty and were fined £100 each.

It started after a National Crime Squad Detective abused a girl in the cloakroom and began fighting with security at the hotel. The other officers, all much the worse for heavy drinking piled in and a huge fight followed. One senior officer of twenty years experience told the Essex tactical support unit to get lost when they were called to intervene. 40 officers were involved including a Chief Inspector and Two Superintendents. Two Firearms cops had their gun licences revoked because of ' aggressive behaviour shown in the fracas.

They assaulted Francis Milburn after they made comments about him and then followed him home.

There is much more on this kind of thing so we will come back to it later.



' CRACKDOWN ON BENT COPPERS PROMISED -- AGAIN?'

Another report showing that coppers were using their warrant cards to get favours, free drinks. goods and entry in to clubs emerged. It stated that perks included £100 watches, free takeaway meals and deals with off-licence shops. Rudeness by cops and arrogance topped 6000 complaints by the public.

Another promise to eradicate bad behaviour was issued yet again.

CUMBRIA POLICE SERGEANT DAVID ROYTHORNE an ex-Met cop, found himself facing charges under the Police Reform Act of 2002 in the Newcastle Upon Tyne Crown Court.

' Cop slaps detained youth and says ' no one saw me do it ' '

THIS INCIDENT took place in South Kensington and in the police cell in South Kensington Police Station. The youth had been picked up on a motoring offence and thrown into a cell. Shortly after three police officers entered the cell and one began questioning the young man. Things got very confrontational and because the youth did not cooperate, one of the officers slapped the boy across the face. The suspect said he wanted to report this immediately, and the officer pushed his face up against the boy and said ' no one saw me do it, and no one will say I did.' and there was two other officers who were present, who of course were willing to lie and perjure themselves if it came to it. Sadly, this kind of thing still goes on despite CTTV as the cops have learnt to work around it and make sure a blow cannot be seen easily enough for a court to determine.



' Womaniser Police Chief commits suicide as investigation begins '

' HAMPSHIRE POLICE IN 27 YEAR MISCARRIAGE OF JUSTICE '

Sean Hodgson went to prison for 27 years based on a false confession probably coerced as around this time, many detectives employed these tactics. He was jailed for murder on the Hampshire police evidence which was held together by the 'confession'. The West Midlands Crime Squad were practicing this at roughly the same time along with other units around 1979 and into the 80's. The real murderer David Lace admitted the crime, but this was dismissed, but now DNA has revealed it was him. The Hampshire police say this is most regrettable and they wish to put things right. They can't, the man has lost 27 years of his life and by our reckoning he should get a payout of around £3million, but the cops will make sure it doesn't get anywhere near this figure in case it sets a precedent, ------- they've done this before in compensation cases --- their lawyers will be actively seeking to deprive the man of any decent or proper payout; pursuing it aggressively no doubt.

' THE HAMPSHIRE POLICE SCANDAL '

This matter borders on a Major Corruption Probe, a probe that never happened due to 'in-house' police tactics by Chief Constable John Hoddinott in 1999. Good cops are hard to find, and easy to set up they say. One good cop - POLICE CONSTABLE GRAHAM CRUTTENDEN found himself charged with sexually molesting a young man after a routine motor check. This charge actively led to his death -- he committed suicide. The young man actually dropped the charges, but this did not help this officer. A fellow officer who was on the Isle of Wight with Graham Cruttenden spoke out about the file prepared against the Pc. He said it was one of the worst proposed cases he'd ever seen and police procedures had not been followed. The PCA rejected the Hampshire Police Force's findings twice and ordered that a new inquiry be set up by an outside force. It was felt by his wife who lodged a complaint against the force, that they were trying really hard to ruin the officer at the time of the allegation. And why would fellow officers and top brass be willing to do this?

Consider the following: Police Constable Cruttenden gave evidence against six Met officers in 1980. He refused to remain silent and disclosed that six officers helped themselves to several thousands of pounds worth of goods at a break-in at a branch of Austin Reed in Fenchurch Street, London. The Squad had been called out on a 999 call. The corrupt officers were convicted in 1981, and were jailed. There is a code of silence when it comes to being called on to name corrupt officers, and this cop broke it and suffered their ' long arm of vengeance ' During his final period before transferring to Hampshire, he said he would go into the canteen and every other cop would upturn their cups and saucers (a traditional show of police contempt). He was threatened by colleagues and received anonymous phone calls. However, due to the case being discussed in police stations throughout the Greater London area, it wasn't long before some members of the Hampshire force became aware of his betrayal -- the cops in London made sure of it.

Threats by Hampshire Cops - When Richard Barrymore (our Private Detective ) began looking into this he was told he would have an 'accident' by one of the cops we already mentioned. Others too said he would be healthier if he did not make waves over the Cruttenden matter and stay out of Hampshire?

' Conspiracy? Collusion? Or Corruption?

ANOTHER HAMPSHIRE POLICE SCANDAL we can tell you about.

The cast list is - The Chief Constable, ALEX MARSHALL, CHIEF SUPERINTENDENT WAKEFIELD, POLICE SERGEANT MAY, POLICE SERGEANT TRAGIS, POLICE SERGEANT CLARKESON, POLICE CONSTABLE A. ROBERTSON, POLICE CONSTABLE SMITH and POLICE CONSTABLE ALAN.

All these police officers have played their part in an attempt to destroy, mute and disable one man -- Mr. J. Baxman a resident on the Isle of Wight. They most certainly ' altered a letter' submitted to the court knowing it had been tampered with, and it contained an additional passage so the court would be made aware of what they thought about him. They as usual, deny this claim saying 'some phantom policeman' must have done it without their consent. Their lawyer in court claimed at one time that the letter was not sent and it did not exist, yet he revealed that the offending part against Mr. Baxman, had been ' cut and pasted' from an internal police report? He also claimed for the police on examination of two letters, that there had been a 'typographical error' so one question remains - how did he know the unsent and non existent letter had been altered at an official level within the Hampshire Police Force?

NO COP HAS BEEN CHARGED -- The presenting of a 'false instrument' false evidence, is a criminal offence, and although the Hampshire police say the document was an error, it is more than an error to put this document into court, especially when its use and intention was to pervert the course of justice, which in fact it did, and it was done by the police, their lawyer and the judge played his part in aiding and abetting the crime to go un-noticed and unpunished. The police knew the stated article was altered, but they still presented it through their lawyer who also had prior knowledge that this evidence was disputed by the plaintiff, and that a complete new paragraph had been pasted onto the letter in order to give a different impression, an impression that was intended to reduce the plaintiff's case by deception.

The Chief Constable did not turn up at a court hearing as instructed and left it in the hands of their lawyer Mr. Wendell. Judge Jolly was unimpressed as this caused delay and amounted to obstruction - he criticised the Chief at length before continuing with the hearing. As their Lawyer made his submissions to the court for the police, judge Jolly became suspicious of the police account and accused the lawyer of not being absolutely clear and attempting to mislead about the police conduct in the case. Judge Jolly threw out their defence and went onto say ' it was not difficult to see how Mr. Baxman feels the police have it in for him.'

Judge Jolly also remarked that Mr. Baxman ' quite possibly had a legitimate complaint against the firm of solicitors where all this matter began leading to police involvement. He had no doubt that the police 'quite unnecessarily' placed statements into court to top up their case in order to discredit Mr. Baxman.'

POLICE CONSTABLE JAY HEWES, POLICE CONSTABLE PAUL LONGDON, POLICE CONSTABLE JERALD ARMITAGE and POLICE INSPECTOR DAVE WALLER fabricated evidence and lied to the court over a vicious attack and unlawful arrest of Daniel Thompson. The Judge also criticised POLICE INSPECTOR MIKE ROSS who supported the officers. The judge said the prosecution of Mr. Thompson had been malicious and hit out at the CPS. The most serious assault on Mr. Thompson happened in the interview room at the police station instigated by officer Hewes. The judge concluded that the Hampshire Police wrongfully imprisoned Mr. Thompson and violently began assaulting him because they did not like him.

THE HAMPSHIRE FORCE were ordered to pay the compensation after hearing how the teenage girl had been subjected to a frightening and humiliating ordeal by police officers. The Judge at the Portsmouth Combined Courts unanimously backed her claim of false imprisonment against the Hampshire Chief Constable. Officers had conducted a full strip search disobeying the laid down rules in the case of a minor by not calling in her parents or having an adult present to oversee that her rights were not violated. The girl Kerrie Crouch was just sat in the grounds of a Petersfield Church when the ordeal began. Despite having no evidence of any crime two constables insisted that she go back to the station for a search. She was awarded the damages for false imprisonment and the unlawful strip search of a juvenile.

POLICE CONSTABLE MARTIN JACOBS was accused of lies by Judge John Wroath. He said this was a serious matter when lying to the court. But Hampshire has not laid perjury charges against this obviously corrupt cop.



' Isle of Wight Bully Cops escape court justice '

HAMPSHIRE CONSTABULARY entered another scandal only to deny one bullied woman real justice. Isle of Wight Officers - DETECTIVE SERGEANT GEOFF CROWE and POLICE CONSTABLE DAVE BRUNT were found to have caused the worst kind of harassment on a female officer by a tribunal. Both officers made gestures in the workplace aimed at her and most of a rude sexual nature. It was said in the tribunal that the all male CID Division except for Evans actively or passively engaged in this behaviour, considering what they did as amusing. Crowe and Brunt were moved from Hyde Police Station after their three and a half years torment on Evans and the Chief Constable sent an apology?

' Detective and CPS Lawyer in Cover-up '

HAMPSHIRE DETECTIVE CONSTABLE NIGEL PHILLIPS was over the drink/drive limit by three times after he left the hotel DeVere in Southampton. Journeying back to his cottage with CPS lawyer Penelope Schofield he hit the kerb in his precarious state, had a puncture and called in at the Bitterne Police Station where he was based. It was there that he was breathalysed and arrested. It was then that lawyer Schofield began a lie to get him off a charge by saying she was the driver.

On the same charge Detective Phillips appeared at the Old Bailey and was sentenced to four months for drink/driving and the conspiracy to deceive.



' Hampshire cop nailed by own breath test '

POLICE CONSTABLE DAVID YOUNG appeared before Southampton Magistrates, where he admitted to driving over the limit.

HAMPSHIRE COP ON SEX RAP AFTER WPC COMPLAINS -- A 22 year old WPC reported a male colleague for sexual harassment -- and constant jibes and a string of sexual taunts using a banana to illustrate what was meant.

She said many of the others were involved in the abuse, but only one handcuffed her.



HAMPSHIRE COPS TO BE SUED BY ISLE OF WIGHT RESIDENT -- Steve Redhead intends to sue for wrongful arrest after being accused of threatening a woman. He spent a day in custody accused of sending texts to a woman, but he didn't even know the woman's name or do texts on his phone. He said police on the Isle arrived mob-handed, seized his phone and kept it for well over a week.



HAMPSHIRE COPS HUMILIATE WOMAN TO SATISFY THEIR BIAS TOWARDS CHILDREN'S RIGHTS -- Yet another typical 'paedophilic response' to children who must be satisfied and paid homage to in this 'kids rule society' and don't say 'boo' to them in case you breach their human rights. Hampshire cops arrived with three cars it is said to arrest Mrs Cole when she refused to hand back a ball kicked onto her land by kids -- and not for the first time either. She was finger-printed and had her DNA taken, and locked in a cell for five hours. And what's more those buffoons at the CPS are to consider the case as theft? Mrs. Cole only wanted to teach these teenagers a lesson, a lesson of respect for other people, but she cannot do that, and no-one else can when it comes to kids rights, they have been given the right to do anything and have everything, because if you deny them this you are abusing them? She never kicked their ball into her own garden, they did, and probably too many times to look the other way. 12 police hours were spent on this, and what of the cost to the taxpayer? Her mother-in-Law's car was damaged to the tune of £100, were the police interested, no, because it's a civil matter then, and can she sue the kiddies? no, they cannot be sued because of age, can she sue the parents? yes if she can afford the costs of a County Court case, but evidence against kids? do me a favour -- the judge will throw it out, and even if at the slightest chance she won, they could ignore paying the judgement, figures of payouts by County Courts show that nearly ninety per cent do not pay any damages or costs, they just throw it in the bin.



AN ISLE OF WIGHT WOMAN POLICE OFFICER THERESA STREET was first arrested on suspicion of arranging to handle stolen property, but changed later to not carrying out her duty in that she did not pass on information needed, and was dismissed at a misconduct hearing.



' The cops on the 'patrol car roof ' mystery on the Isle of Wight '

HAMPSHIRE POLICE are acting mysteriously over the fact that two officers, as yet un-named, were caught on rooftop of their patrol car just outside the Travelodge hotel and opposite the offices of the solicitors, Roach Pittis. It appears an eye-witness saw the off-duty cops climbing onto the vehicle. At the moment, the Hampshire cops are not disclosing why or what these two officers were up to or observing? Both officers are said to be under investigation and face professional misconduct charges, and that the Hampshire Constabulary Professional Standards Department is conducting the investigation.



' Detective Superintendent refuses to take breath test '

HAMPSHIRE DETECTIVE SUPERINTENDENT DENNIS LUCY a cop who launched a crusade against alcohol and driving, refused to be breathalysed and was arrested. He was found to be twice over the drink limit after a police woman smelled alcohol on him after he left the Park Gate Police Station. Aldershot Magistrates fined him £1,300 and he was banned for 16 months. The cop from Southampton has since retired on health grounds.

HAMPSHIRE COP CAR CLAMPED AT GUN WHARF --- Cops arrest clamper employed by Shoal Enforcement, there were no officers present when the clamping took place it is stated, and they charged the man with obstructing the police in their duty. It certainly looks like Hampshire cops are above the law, and this amply shows this to be the case. It shows one could not arrest a cop in a 'citizens arrest' without the tables being turned on them, even if the cop was bent or up to no good.

WHEN THE COPS MAKE A SPECTACLE OF THEMSELVES --- and Hampshire Cops have done that most proudly in the case of arresting a musician on the Isle of Wight for what they say is a 'racist song' which the public may found utterly laughable. This kind of thing makes you wonder what they are really up to? Hampshire police arrested pub singer Simon Ledger for singing ' Kung Fu fighting' a 70's record hit for Carl Douglas in 1974. I would suppose the song was aired on the radio for thousands of plays,,,but no racist accusation, Carl Douglas was not charged, nor did he appear in court, and the record was not banned by the BBC. One would think common sense might be adhered to,,,but no, the cops made the claim they have to respond to a complaint made by the public...and it was just one Chinese man who made a fuss in the bar...all the other patrons were okay.. One should be aware that any complaint made about the police is not so diligently carried out, they often ignore and mess a complainant around before making any move to write out a statement... and we have witnessed an officer lean up against a filing cabinet and look disinterested as he delays things to the point the claimant demanded to speak with someone of higher rank.

THE STRANGE CASE OF FORMER DETECTIVE CHIEF INSPECTOR NEIL KINGMAN of the Hampshire Police: It was his belief, of which he had no doubts according to his findings when he headed the inquiry into ' the Isle of Wight alleged child abuse and Paedophile ring and sacrifices' that he had no doubts what he was told by community social workers, were true. This strange case was one that David Icke featured in one of his books and regularly featured it on his blog. The police headed by Kingman began investigating when it was claimed that a number of businessmen, prominent heads on the island were engaged in secret societies. We have since been told that Kingman has now retired, and the other matter never resolved.

HAMPSHIRE COPS DEFEND EMPLOYING COPS WHO HAVE CRIMINAL CONVICTIONS, who still work on the force and in the public. A spokesperson would not comment on allegations that the cops had been convicted of Benefit Fraud, Discharging a firearm, Possession of Cannabis, Drunk and Disorderly, Assault and Theft. Members of the public in Hampshire were not pleased to hear this, and top cop John O Connor formerly of Scotland Yard said ' It is totally inappropriate that these officers have been allowed to stay in their jobs '

DISQUIET OVER 999 COP ACCIDENT LEADS TO COMPLAINT - Isle of Wight Police have now had a formal complaint lodged against them over the surrounding activity concerning a police driver who crashed into the family car of Mr. Graeme Howlett, a holidaymaker from Essex. It was said by witnesses that the police mondeo car sped through red lights. Mr. Howlett was very unhappy with the way police dealt with him after the accident, as the ambulance only took the officer, and his family had to wait for a second ambulance before being taken to hospital for treatment. He said his wife was cut and suffered bruising and the children were in shock besides his own injuries. Hampshire Police said they would be investigating?

' A SECRET TO HIDE ' - COPS AND LAWYERS KEEP SILENT ' We feel that it is time to expose this in the light of certain events that compel us to show the reader what is hidden by the authorities will finally come to the surface despite their attempts to cover it up. ' FLOWERBURN COTTAGE ' is on the Isle of Wight, it is a property that has been described as unsaleable, and one man has attempted to get to the bottom of the mystery that contains improperly signed and unsigned property transactions as to sale, ownership and more. Solicitors have been involved and passed it around like a hot potato, the mere mention of the place has sent them scurrying away, especially if you need some explanations. It's sale or attempted sale involved a lawyer who didn't declare his own self interests, - this is known as ' a conflict of interests ' (punishable under the Solicitors Rules with a fine or more ) as he represented the seller and buyer, which is not permitted by the SRA, but they in turn pretended not to know and did nothing about it despite having the evidence presented to them. The Police suddenly tried to get the man for a breach of a court order saying that he had approached certain solicitors contrary to the court order even though the matter of the Flowerburn Cottage was not part of that gagging order; after all, the man was only doing his own private inquiries into the sale and ownership of a property that passes around in a very strange manner, which has led him down a very dark path of secrecy and deceit. Luckily the man played a wise move and mentioned if he was to appear in court charged with contempt of that order the Flowerburn cottage details would be released along with the matter of the cops using a false and forged document. (The police should have been charged in a criminal prosecution for the using of the document, a member of the public would have been and most likely gone to jail. The CPS should have acted and brought a case despite it being claimed an error? a judge once said ' if it doesn't look right, sound right, no excuse can be accepted when it is clearly wrong ' but they pushed this into a siding and got away with a crime ) The police did no more, did not reply to letters he sent them or move on the breach they claimed against him, and their part in this mystery has gone to ground despite the man offering himself up for their action. As we have often shown you, when the police have something to hide, they will go to any length be it fair or foul to conceal that information and sadly that also applies to the public too. There is more to this mystery and cover-up, and we shall reveal it all when the fog lifts...when something does not look right or smell right, then it usually isn't right, and all indications point to something rotten in the county of Hampshire.

N.B. In certain profile cases mentioned it has been discovered that police have shredded evidence and strangely 'lost files' even amid an investigation carried out by the PCA and IPPC. This happened on ' Operation Countryman ' the massive investigation into corrupt cops, and --' The West Midlands Crime Squad Investigation ' just to name two, there are several more on this site.
