Policing is inherently messy, operates in grey areas, people are dissatisfied and will seek to influence policing to favour their own particular group? Who'd a thunk it?
Excellent piece, the same crap has been going on for years over here in Northern Ireland with the PSNI.
Which was highlighted by the political interference from Sinn Fein/IRA that caused the then Chief Constable and Deputy Chief Constable to suspend one Constable and move another Constable after an arrest in Belfast. The two young officers were carrying out their lawful duty. This led the Feds to bring a court case against them where it was found that the CC and DCC were wrong and their actions were unlawful. The said CC resigned and the DCC went sick (before he was sacked).
