Bent

Australia's Crooked Cops

ebook

All police forces great and small have had incidents of corruption that bedevil the thousands of decent officers who serve the public. Morton and Lobez have illustrated, in several Gangland books, that Australia almost certainly has out-ganged other countries and that in terms of Aussie Stings, Australia cons above its weight. Now they turn their spotlight on big bad cops. So how does Australia fare in the police corruption stakes? And which state wins the bent cop handicap? Lobez and Morton examine the problems from the landing of the First Fleet through to the present day looking at the troubles caused by greed, power, drink, sex, money and more latterly drugs. They compare the Australian experiences in all states with corruption in America, England and Hong Kong, concentrating in particular on organised corruption from top to bottom and the involvement of judges, lawyers and politicians. And which state has the shadiest cops? You may be surprised.
