	Australia: Police brutality against Queensland Aborigines - Amnesty International (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-12)
		Ipswich police officers involved in the arrests appeared to be indifferent to the fact that they were watched by a crowd of between 20 and 30 bystanders and that the incident was being recorded.
		In order to reduce the number of assault complaints against the police, the study recommended improved training and supervision practices for police officers, procedures for identifying officers who are the subject of significant numbers of complaints, and the implementation of a comprehensive policy on the use of force [8].
		Amnesty International considers that the Ipswich incident indicates a continuing disregard by some police officers of directives of police commissioners and recommendations by judicial inquiries, which are aimed at preventing unnecessary arrest and the escalation of police intervention in cases where the alleged original offence is of a petty nature.

	Submission
		The information which is disseminated by police media units cannot provide a satisfactory substitute for that which is currently derived from police radio, and relying on police media units facilitates the manipulation of the media for the purposes of propaganda.
		Even if police pass on a substantial amount of information to the media via liaison officers, there is a risk that the information which ultimately reaches the media via the media liaison office gives a partial and therefore skewed or misleading impression of situation.
		In his report into police misconduct in Queensland, G.E. Fitzgerald made several observations on the nature of the relationship between police and the media which caution against relying on either police media units or upon leaks to disseminate information to journalists and to the public.

	Probing shady places - National - www.theage.com.au
		Police Commissioner Terry Lewis and former policeman turned minister and powerbroker Don "Shady" Lane exerted themselves powerfully to have another former police officer turned judge given carriage of the inquiry.
		The problem with inquiries into police corruption from the viewpoint of politicians is that the damage is never limited to the police.

	Police shame \| The Courier-Mail
		A SENIOR Queensland police officer lost his temper and repeatedly punched a drunk Aboriginal man before putting him in a police cell where he was left to die from his injuries, a coroner has ruled.
		The incompetent Queensland bureaucracy seems to be ignorant of how this type of response has failed governments in the past, not to mention the glaring obviousness of how this type of simple minded reactionary policy making has failed us all in iraq today.
		Queensland has a history of this type of police action with nothing ever being done and the police protecting it's own whilst disparaging witnesses and calling them drunkards.

		He and the governor of Queensland, Quentin Bryce have not replied to simple and polite requests, and, they too will be exposed in the book for accepting the corruption of a court of the Crown.
		The perennial whining of members of the Queensland Police Service for MORE of this and MORE of that can be accepted as a cover-up, at which they in their devious and deceptive ways are proficient, for their own inadequacies, incompetencies, and insincerities.
		This means Queensland police can say and do things with total impunity, as they cover up their own errors, incompetence, and rogues.
