Crime Commission officer Mark Standen busted for ice
A SENIOR police officer targeting organised crime and drug trafficking has been arrested for allegedly masterminding a plot to produce Australia's biggest haul of "ice".
Mark Standen, an assistant director with the New South Wales Crime Commission, was arrested at his desk in Sydney yesterday for his alleged role in attempting to import enough ephedrine to produce more than $120 million worth of ice.

WA's worst hoon driver?

WA's worst hoon driver?
IN arguably the worst case of hoon-driving on WA roads, a Perth man has led police on an alleged 196km/h chase through Southern Cross.
Police threw the book at the Rivervale 30-year-old, who they say led them on a wild high-speed chase through the small Wheatbelt town of Southern Cross, 370km east of Perth.

This article is about hoons not senior police drug links.

Trust me this is my pleasure. Had a good experience with one call with a good response, how ever after the several other calls I've made there has never been any progress unless you can wrangle an unmarked or something to attend.

No just point the laser in his/her eyes for 5 mins and see how they like it, eye for and eye, tooth fof a tooth.
