Here in the US, the cops are the biggest drug dealers. Nothing goes on without them knowing about it. Have you ever seen the movie, "Serpico"?
Hi NP, yup seen the movie and its a great one. The scenario here may come a bit different as cops go dirty, plainly because of low paychecks against the high cost of living. tsk tsk really hard to sort the good ones from the bad these days.
