Belly,
As one of those Kings Cross coppers, and they were really out of Darlinghurst, I will answer your latest "when I have referred to my notes if I may your honor"
The RC was as bent as we were mate and all it did was to hurry up our pensions. Sure a couple of prats were nailed and boxed up but they were expendable.
It took some trumped up charges subsequent to the RC to get my partner and they missed me but we still both have Commissioners Medals for the Lamfranchi/Sally-Anne effort.
Royal Commissions are side shows for the public.
Look at this one into the Sex and kids thing. It has no powers to investigate offenses against individuals ( who committed the crimes) and will swing on till most of them are dead.

Chris on giving evidence on behalf of the police, the defendants breif tried to stop me reading from my diary/notes.
Yes OK the RC would have been bent in fact it runs on bent.
But do you, now come on, ever think taking big cash bribes is OK?
My whispered words about my interface with NSW ICAC was them, trying to pressure me, to give evidence against a theiving police station!
The bent Cops put more pressure than ICAC did so 23 workers kept their mouths shut.
Tonights news will show a prisoner who murdered a man.
He served 6 plus a bit years.
Then was released, on parole.
He has broken his parole and is on the run.
Police warn he is dangerous, we do live in a world of madness.

Belly,
There is no way they could have stopped you using your diaries to refresh you mind.
That is what we had diaries for.
I and my partners including Rogerson never took a bribe. We may have taken ill gotten gains off the crims but that would have disappeared from the property rooms anyway. If there was cash laying around it went into the skyrocket but that was the nature of the beast.
The big cash bribes were reserved for the top brass and Ministers.
I posted elsewhere my experiences with Rand's bag-man, Malcolm Johns. To this day I wouldn't take a bribe to hide a crime and I would lie in court to lock the bludger up if I believed he was guilty. We knew, it was part of the job

Belly, we can pretend to be anyone we want on this site.
I wouldn't believe everything some people say...

Yes Suseonline I understand that, in fact a different poster made claim he was then was not a Cop.
Chris I know of the Christmas gift runs and the meals not paid for.
In the words of a former Chief Inspector of Police.
*It is the older Cops that are bent*
Yet to be honest it is not just the police, construction is as bent as a rusty nail thousands changing hands to ensure contracts are won.
Machines never seen on site are paid for 12 hours work everyday and phantom workers the same.
Note recent headlines.

Rapists, serial and otherwise, might be deterred if potential victims were able to protect themselves.
