Never Underestimate The Power of NZ Police Stupidity

The Nincompoop New Zealand Police yesterday admitted to a “monstrous mistake”

They left a police camera congaing images of dead bodies and violence victims at a Lower Hutt house following a raid last year.

At least 16 people were identifiable in the pictures, a report said.

Ms Collins [aka Puffy,] the equally incompetent Police Minister (left), said it was always concerning when lapses affecting the public occurred, and that police were embarrassed by the latest one, a report said

“But it’s also good to bear in mind that there are 420,000 offences in any year that they deal with,” she told Radio New Zealand.

“The Police Commissioner has assured Ms Collins that the blunder will not be repeated.” [You want to bet?]

Collins said last night: “Obviously, this is embarrassing for the police. It is essential that police keep track of sensitive material and don’t let it fall into the wrong hands.

“I raised the issue with Police Commissioner Howard Broad today. He assured me that while there is always a chance that objects could be left behind in the heat of police operations, new processes have been put in place to minimise the chance of it happening again.”

“It was the second incident of mislaid police property in as many days, after it was revealed on Wednesday that police had left a restricted document with members of the Mongrel Mob during a raid last month.”
