Good work Police
June 21st, 2012 at 10:00 am by David FarrarStuff reports:
Two people have turned themselves in and one other has been arrested after they were named and shamed on a new wanted persons website.
The website was launched by police yesterday morning and featured 31 people who had warrants for their arrest who or needed to be identified.
Within hours of the launch two people, one wanted in Wellington and one in the Eastern districts, turned themselves in.
Another person in Wellington was arrested after the police received leads about their location.
Their mugshots and details have since been removed from the site,www.police.govt.nz/wanteds.
Excellent. Three more crims off the street.

Lets have the top 100 up there each Monday morning for the whole country.
Whilst we’re at it, a sex offender list would be helpful and a kiddie porn conviction list, all with Mug shots too!

Off the streets till they bail and then a community sentence.
The police wor hard to catch these shits and then the injustice system works hard to put them back on the streets.
What a fucken joke.

There are 33 offenders listed.
Given 20% of the population is maoris/PI , you’d expect 6 of the 33 offenders to be maoris/PI.
But, 26 of 33 are maori/PI.
I call this website out for being racist.

Phil, what if that cannabis possession was breaching bail for a more serious offence?
