Reminds me of a story I heard in a small town in the riverina T.

The local cop (the town had about 50 population), found some herbal chemistry taking place in a acre of paddock. He asked the owner whose it was and the owner said he did not know what the copper was talking about.

The copper said okay no problem, so he confiscated the haul, stashed in a cool room that one of his mates had for storing meat, and started selling it to travellers passing through the local.

He only sold that stash, did not get greedy, and he made enough to retire on and move up to Coffs Harbour.

He was smart and did not try and become a drug tsar, in and out and he lived right up until 2010, when he passed away from pancreatic cancer.

If you want to know the town, it is between Cootamundra and Junee, there is a hint!

Not all cops are bent.  Our local drove thru 3 fences, stripped off and dived in a freezing icy dam, and dragged out an old bloke twice his size, who had been in the water about 20 mins and was almost gone.  He then gave him CPR and saved him.

Hadley is always getting tip offs from “a contact in the force”
Clearly his sons only sins are not stealing drugs

Very sad for anyone to have to deal with this type of thing and to make it worse ' there is very few areas available to seek help.
Half the population is involved in "The Gear " of some kind and virtually nothing being done about it.

It's much easier to do that when you are stoned out of your head of course ...

While our sympathy goes out to the the Ray Hadley tears ,   Surely he is aware that most Mental Health admissions are chemical intake induced
( includes alcohol )   The Pot is a mind altering drug and very harmful.
( contrary to the belief of so many )

   I have no doubt Hadley's Son is suffering a drug induced Psychosis,
That shouldn't be a work related illness and he should not be retained in his work of Policing.
We have had enough Roger Rogerson & Chris Laycock types , Thank you.

He should be treated no differently to any other Cop in the same situation. If it is a instant dismissal crime than that is what should happen.

I know in many jobs they give you rehabilitation. Do the Coppers do the same ?

Hadley takes a very hard line on drug offences and law and order issues generally. He calls for mandatory sentencing, zero tolerance. Yesterday he held a press conference where he talked about his sons very serious mental health issues that drove him to drugs, with the family doctor as a prop, and said that he was in specialist care for this very serious illness and called for consideration and privacy for his family. All stuff he rails about daily as the insanity of political correctness destroying society, calling on bleeding heart magistrates to throw the book at offenders. 

Obviously his son has issues(being Hadley's son is a start) and you would hope the young fellow gets the help he needs. It seems it is a bit different now that the problem has come knocking at Ray's door personally. Drug taking and mental health is not simply a case of criminal behaviour. Will we see a new better informed more understanding Hadley now?

Drug taking and Mental Health go hand in hand . In massive numbers.

The criminal part of the situation is that substance addiction is grounds for a pension.
Bob Carr introduced injecting rooms to assist addicts .    What about the crime of posession in transporting the illegal substance to those rooms .
       THE BASTXRDS LIKE CARR ARE THE MADDEST OF ALL.

Not 100% sure, could be early speculation but it was suggested by some people who dont usually go off with wild speculation that it was coming from other coppers, maybe the evidence room, and they were dobbed in by a straight policeman. There were calls to ensure the safety of the whistle-blower.

That's what I assumed from reading the story where it says he was busted by Professional Standards but later I read that he was scoring off pub dealers. Maybe he did both.

Only last week Hadley was calling for a prison officer to be sacked and jailed as she screwed a prisoner.

What will he want for his thieving drug addict son

I think we need to clarify what corruption is!

The fact that he was addicted to a banned substance, is the worst issue then, to me that is not the worst part.

His buying an illicit drug from a street seller, puts him in a position where he could be compromised in teh future. If this seller was associated with a bikie club, he could in the future be asked to supply information about a witness or informant on the club and if he complied he would be compromised.

That is the part of the story, that he should be sacked for!

I guess he would not be the one making that decision, In most cases he'd have been simply carrying out orders, If have his ranking correct.

Imagine having Ray Hadley as your father, You would need serious drugs to live with that knowledge.

These people have usually had cushy lives or forgotten where their roots are and need a tragedy or circumstance to change for them to see the real world.
