Dodgy going ons

Beej, please read my posts above before commenting. I am not naive at all and know its people from all walks of life who deal and use drugs. My point is that pushing drugs is illegal so why be so blatant selling on a busy pavement in broad daylight? The blatant cheekiness of it pisses me off!

Unfortunately Marie81 there some people, that simply don't care where they sell it and who is looking and they are not ashamed of it

People everywhere breaking the law, terrible. I saw someone doing over 30mph on Lordship Lane the other day. I was disgusted!!

I'd say a lot cheekier were the SIX coppers at East Dulwich police station who were prosecuted for fairly major drug dealing and related offences. *They* were cheeky. Well beyond cheeky, really: they were contributing to some of the really serious shit going on in this area in a pretty direct fashion.

Louisiana,

you're referring to the South East Regional Crime Squad (SERCS), who did indeed parade out of ED Nick.

However, none of their shenannigans were in ED, it was just somewhere to bring their il gotten gains back to.

It's over 15 yrs old, but well documented in 'Bent Coppers' by Graeme McLaglan

Not really relevant to the thread methinks

Ah, yes, Bent Coppers, the official - Met - story.

(Legal cases linked to this lot still going on through the noughties...and there were serious offences committed by their contacts/people they were handling, in this area, including on the street and in public places. It was not just about the drugs.)
