Officer for NYPD secretly records colleagues and superiors for over a year, exposes mass corruption!
Two years ago, a police officer in a Brooklyn precinct became gravely concerned about how the public was being served. To document his concerns, he began carrying around a digital sound recorder, secretly recording his colleagues and superiors.
He recorded precinct roll calls. He recorded his precinct commander and other supervisors. He recorded street encounters. He recorded small talk and stationhouse banter. In all, he surreptitiously collected hundreds of hours of cops talking about their jobs.
They reveal that precinct bosses threaten street cops if they don't make their quotas of arrests and stop-and-frisks, but also tell them not to take certain robbery reports in order to manipulate crime statistics. The tapes also refer to command officers calling crime victims directly to intimidate them about their complaints.
As a result, the tapes show, the rank-and-file NYPD street cop experiences enormous pressure in a strange catch-22: He or she is expected to maintain high "activity"—including stop-and-frisks—but, paradoxically, to record fewer actual crimes
those motherfuckers!
they doing the same thing here, they are bumpin up street presence, and shaking down everybody jus to make the public feel like the pigs are doing summat, while in actual fact they are just spending all their time on false shows of power by sacrificing their time on actual crimes, its bullshit, and it makes it much harder on us stoners and easier on harder criminals.
I dont know if your over in the UK Nutter, but heres another inspiring story about the police.
