Interesting Police activites
#32
Years ago I went to Liverpool from Norwich by train with my sisters ex (nice lad but smoked hash) after we got off the train at Lime ST we went down an alleyway so he could have a spliff and low and behold a copper (big **** too) came up and caught us making the spliff.
Took £20 off each of us and my mates gear and told us to "fvck off before I nick you"
100% true story.

It is however possible that the officer found the drugs and then seized the phone and cash as possible evidence that the guy was dealing drugs. But then he would have locked him up at the time?

P.s. as for the story about the £200 from the cash machine, I dont believe that either! If I was on duty and I arrested a guy for D&D and he told me his father was a chief constable, the last thing I would be thinking about was robbing him!!!

I think you may be slightly biased being a copper/civil servant. I have no doubt a lot of stories about coppers robbing people are untrue .Smackheads have less to lose so they are more likely to be dishonest IMO.
As there are thousands of coppers in the UK there has to be a small minority that give in to the temptation to earn some extra money. Maybe £19,000 a year starting wage isn't enough for a bobby? Maybe they could go on strike ,complaining that you have to deal drugs to subsidise your living?

[quote=StickyMicky]i have to say, there are a lot of people who seam to have a very high regard for the police in this country.
despite the fact that there are the odd rotten apples,you have to have respect for the police.....society has to....if trust and respect go,generally then you have chaos,as in n.ireland a few years back.the police only exist effectively with general community pespect...without,they are useless.

And if the Police, like some private companies, start doing hair strand tests, your mates fecked. Everytime you take a drug, it leaves a trace in your hair.
The fact is, there are corrupt police officers who abuse their position. Although incidents of corruption are rare and isolated, it only takes a few reports for the public to begin to dis-trust them.
After all, these are the same officers who are not supposed to be racist.

He went home £200 lighter.

just got to laugh....."my dads a chief" so the copper thinks he's a good candidate to steal £200 off!!!!
why is it the stories of iffy cops all come from drunks and crack heads!

I thought that might have been the case with not being allowed to strike ,otherwise it would have happened before now surely?
I would like to say that I'm not anti-police at all despite some bad dealings with them in the past. I was only at a police meeting today to discuss crime stats etc and the bobbys were very helpful.
I understand it's an extremely hard job and a thankless task sometimes.
It's reassuring that you haven't seen or heard of any of the corruption in your force.

I know 4 coppers on a personal level,2 of em are that bent(not the fudgepacking kind) they cant even walk straight.
These stories dont suprise me at all..
But having said that,i wouldnt like to do the job,all bagheads,scum,thieves and the like want a good filling in,perhaps it may stop them reoffending.A £10 fine and digging up plants for a couple of days certainly doesnt.

Why is it that people who believe that all police are honest and without prejudice are naive and quite possibly idiots ?
How many SN members have posted about cops behaving badly in the past ? Or are they "crackheads" also ?
Furthermore, may I draw your attention to this report http://www.homeoffice.gov.uk/rds/pdfs2/rdsolr1103.pdf published by the Home Office regarding "unethical policing".
Or are they lying too ?
