DETAILS OF THE EXTERNAL AUDIT OF THE REFORM PROCESS A246 ii EXPLANATORY NOTES The amalgamation of the New South Wales Police Force (operations) and the New South Wales Police Department (policy and administrative support) into a single entity known as the New South Wales Police Service, commenced in June 1987. This was formalised by the Police Service Act 1990 (NSW) which came into effect on 1 July 1990. Throughout this Report, the organisation is generally referred to as ‘the Service’ or ‘the Police Service’. All legislation referred to is NSW legislation unless otherwise indicated. The Commission was assisted by a number of consultants who prepared research papers on matters of relevance, in particular Dr Janet Chan, Dr David Dixon, Mr Mark Finnane and Mr Chris Cunneen. The employee associations for sworn officers of the NSW Police Service are the Police Association of New South Wales, for non-commissioned officers, and the Commissioned Police Officers’ Association for commissioned officers. Throughout this Report they will be referred to as ‘the Associations’ or ‘the Police Associations’. A reference to ‘the Police Association’ (singular) is a reference to the Police Association of New South Wales. iii ABBREVIATIONS USED IN THIS REPORT Abbreviations are for NSW organisations unless otherwise stated.

It very much depends on the dedication and ability of its staff, and on the extent to which it receives the co-operation, and active support, of those who might be affected by its inquiries, or who have an interest in its recommendations. This Royal Commission was fortunate in receiving that support both from within and without, and such measure of success as it has had is attributable to that circumstance. ROYAL COMMISSION STAFF The list which follows includes all staff who worked for the Royal Commission from May 1994. The dedication, hard work, skill and commitment of the Royal Commission workforce was exceptional, and morale remained high throughout despite the extremely stressful and demanding nature of the task involved. While it is inappropriate to select out any individual members of staff for particular credit, the special contribution of Gary Crooke QC, Senior Counsel Assisting, cannot be ignored. Mr Crooke was appointed to act as tactician and special adviser to Commissioner Wood, to oversee the work of the investigative teams, and to maintain direct liaison with the Police Service, the Police Ministry, the Government, the Police Associations, and the other bodies concerned with the inquiry. His experience from the Fitzgerald Commission of Inquiry1 was invaluable, and the contribution he made to the work of this Commission cannot be done justice in print. The outcome of this Royal Commission is in no small measure attributable to his close co-operation with Commissioners Wood and Urquhart, his wise counsel, and to his commitment to the task. Moreover, his role was important in maintaining the independence of the Commissioners from outside influences, and in allowing them to conduct the public hearings in accordance with the requirements of natural justice. It would be equally unfair to pass by the valuable contribution of the four Counsel Assisting who acted as team leaders, and similarly that of the Directors of Operations and Chief Investigators.

  • The National Crime Authority
    CHAPTER 1 WELCOME TO THE NATIONAL CRIME AUTHORITY Maybe it was who you knew, not what you knew, that would help you get ahead in the Force. In the early 1980s in Sydney, drug dealing was big—it still is. In 1981, the infamous drug dealer and armed robber, Warren Lanfranchi, was wanted nationally for the attempted murder of a traffic cop in Sydney. When Lanfranchi aimed the shot, the firing pin jammed in the hammer of his revolver, which saved the life of the traffic cop that day. Lanfranchi became a prime target of the New South Wales Police Force. My partner Schuey and I had information that Lanfranchi sold heroin on behalf of the notorious drug kingpin Neddy Smith to Aborigines who hung out at the Everleigh Hotel. The Everleigh was in the area called The Block in inner-city Redfern. Warren Lanfranchi was a creature of habit. If he wasn’t at The Block tormenting drug addicted Aborigines, he wouldn’t be too far away. It was a matter of hitting the place a couple of times to catch him. So, dressed in jeans and T-shirts, Schuey and I bowled through the Everleigh Hotel searching for him. We were the only two white guys in the dump. 13 DIRTY WORK The locals did not welcome our arrival. In fact, they were hostile, shouting and mouthing threats under their breath, until the loudest loudmouth in the place accidentally fell from his barstool and landed on his arse. After that it was dead quiet. Schuey and I searched the pub high and low for Lanfranchi.

  • DEEP BLUE MURDER Ex Cops at Centre of Death Probe As Body Surfaces
    DEEP BLUE MURDER Ex cops at centre of death probe as body surfaces WRAPPED in a tarp and floating in the sea off Cronulla, the body of murder victim Jamie Gao was found by a fisherman early yesterday. Several hours later, former police officer Glen McNamara faced court charged with his killing. As of last night, disgraced detective Roger Rogerson was still wanted for questioning over the death. Police will allege CCTV captured the pair walking into a storage unit with Mr Gao and leaving minutes later carrying a body in a bag. FORMER detectives Roger Rogerson and Glen McNamara walked into a storage facility with young Asian student Jamie Gao — minutes later only two of them walked out carrying a body, police will allege. Damning CCTV footage allegedly captured the two former officers carrying between them what appears to be the body of Mr Gao, wrapped in a blue tarpaulin. The whole sequence of events from Mr Gao’s meeting about an hour earlier when he allegedly got into a car with the two men on a Padstow street was filmed on CCTV at various businesses in the south-western Sydney suburb. Police will allege Mr Gao was killed in an alleged $3 million ice — methamphetamine — deal gone wrong. The two experienced former police officers are alleged to have used their own cars. It is claimed that Mr Gao’s body was put in McNamara’s white station wagon, which was followed by Rogerson in his silver Ford Falcon. McNamara, 55, was yesterday charged with murdering Mr Gao, 20, even though his body had not then been found.

Marijuana was said to be ‘a new drug that maddens victims’ and it was sensationally described as an ‘evil sex drug’. The resulting tabloid furore saw the plant cannabis sativa banned in Australia, even though cannabis had been a well-known and widely used drug in Australia for many decades.
