Lol, im suprised noone has mentioned the anti~tank missiles that got "lost" from an army barracks aways back. I know the hells angels got caught with a few, but most of them were never found.


The police weren't the ones who lost the missiles, the green supporters are brain dead considering the thread title is about the police.  Roll Eyes Roll Eyes

Queensland Police: Glock 22 missing from Yamanto police station


A Glock 22 handgun has been either stolen or lost from a south-east Queensland police station.

The police-issued Glock 22 went missing from the Yamanto police station in Ipswich some time between June 25 and July 18 – a period of more than three weeks.

Police have been unable to find the missing weapon, despite extensive efforts and believe it is either lost or stolen.

The spokeswoman said the gun was missing from the Ipswich scenes of crime office in the Yamanto police station.

"The Glock model 22 was left at the premises prior to an officer commencing leave on June 25," she said.
"Upon returning to duty on July 18 the officer has been unable to locate the firearm.

"Police have carried out extensive searches but have been unable to locate the weapon."

Fairfax Media asked the QPS where the gun was missing from, whether any officers have been disciplined or stood down, whether it was believed a member of the public or a police officer stole the Glock and why the information was not released to the public, but the questions went unanswered.

Hells Angel bikie gang tried to sell NSW Police its own stolen gun back — but they refused to pay


HOURS after a detective left his police-issued firearm in a backpack under a table at McDonald’s, senior police were faced with a difficult choice.

They could heed to the demands of a bikie gang and pay thousands of dollars to get the gun back, or risk letting it circulate in Sydney’s underworld, hoping one day it turned up.
The police chose the latter, hedging their bets — and crossing their fingers — that the Glock pistol would not be used to orchestrate a serious crime.

The bet paid off. A few months later the stolen gun was discovered during a raid on a house near Bankstown in Sydney’s southwest.

As the hunt to find a police Glock semi automatic pistol stolen recently from a detective’s unlocked car in Rydalmere continues, The Sunday Telegraph can reveal two other cases in which police Glock handguns have ended up in the hands of criminals and where eventually retrieved.

In April, 2013, an officer who was with colleagues at McDonald’s in Mascot accidentally left his back pack — with his Glock and ammunition inside — in the fast food restaurant.

He raced back to find it less than an hour later, however local thief Benjamin John Aurisch had made already the most of the opportunity and pinched it.

CCTV from inside McDonald’s captured Aurisch curiously peering at the unattended bag as he walked past it several times. He eventually rummaged through it and hit the jackpot.
By the time police caught up with him hours later, Aurisch had already off-loaded the gun.

Sources with knowledge of the investigation confirmed the police gun passed through several hands until it reached the local Hells Angels bikie gang chapter.

Police found out, but negotiations to get the weapon off the street fell apart when the bikie gang demanded police buy their own Glock back for a hefty sum, in the tens of thousands of dollars.
Fortunately a few months later the gun turned up during a search warrant.

A NSW Police spokesman said all investigative efforts were made to get firearms back when they fell into the hands of criminals.
“Thankfully in relation to police firearms, it's a rare occurrence,” he said.

A Glock ripped from the hip of a police officer at the Wetherill Park Police Station in 2006 vanished for several years.
Constable Elizabeth Roth was on-duty alone at the southwest Sydney police station when she was shot with her own handgun.


A 32-year-old man climbed over the front counter, attacked Constable Roth with two knives before pulling her gun out of her holster.
She was shot in the stomach but survived.
“David” Ngoc Qui Khuu was later charged over the shooting but the gun’s whereabouts remained a mystery for years.
It turned up in April, 2013, when Gang Squad officers banged down the door of a house in Sefton and found it stashed behind a couch.

It was the home of low-level drug dealer Edgar Khoury, who was the target of an unrelated investigation.

Police employee 'found with cache of semi-automatic weapons'


An urgent statewide audit is underway in Queensland for all police firearms after a civilian employee was allegedly found with a cache of semi-automatic weapons.

The extreme measure will also include seized weapons and comes just days out from the Commonwealth Games, police sources told Seven News.
The Queensland Police Service administrative officer has restricted access to a police facility which stores their firearms and seized weapons.
His role at the storage facility includes the destruction of seized firearms and doing inventory of exhibits.

An internal investigation is underway as to whether the weapons were stolen from the storage facility or sourced elsewhere.

Seven News has been told the investigation would include looking at whether the weapons found at the man’s home were court exhibits that were meant to be destroyed.

It is understood some of the firearms seized at his home have had the serial numbers removed.

Police allegedly found an AR-15 semi-automatic rifle, two glocks and five other semi-automatic handguns during a search of the man's home early on Tuesday.

The weapons seizure came after he sought medical help for a gunshot wound.

I find the comment about an Audit of disposed / destroyed firearms to be the most interesting. How do you check if a firearm has been destroyed and disposed of compared to being unaccounted for / missing in the wrong hands. Its a farce of an investigation.

All weapons should be disposed of in the presence of two people and a Police officer.  The Police Officer is randomly chosen for each day's disposals.  He checks to make sure that each weapon is placed in the crusher and the smelter.  All three must sign separately that each weapon has been disposed of.  No Police officer can serve as "Disposals Officer" for more than one day a week.   Roll Eyes

Bill Drysdale surrendered an AR15 in the 1987 Victorian gun amnesty  to Police who claimed it was destroyed on 9th march 1994 at Sims metal furnace in Laverton Victoria. This Ar15 was used by Bryant at Port Arthur.

Journalists Phil Maguire and Wayne Jones covered this story on 9th June 1996.

As for bwians codswallop this latest story involved a civilian working for the police who acquired this Ar15.

Vic police officer suspended over guns

Exclusive: IBAC raid uncovers ‘illegal firearms’ at high-ranking cop’s home


Neil Mitchell believes a high-ranking police officer has been suspended for allegedly possessing illegal firearms.

Sources told 3AW Mornings the superintendent’s house was raided, and that a pistol and rifle were found.

“I am told neither was registered,” Neil Mitchell said. “And I’m told the superintendent does not have a gun licence.”


3AW Mornings believes the raid was organised by the state’s anti-corruption body, IBAC, regarding an unrelated matter.

If the allegations are proven, it does not tarnish the whole force. But, at a time police command are chasing illegal firearms down every second borrow, it would be immensely embarrassing.
Victoria Police are not having a good run at the moment.
-Neil Mitchell

Victoria Police later confirmed a superintendent “from a corporate support area has been suspended with pay in relation to allegations of firearm and weapons offences on 5 June 2018”.

So why haven't they charged this high ranking police officer who had unregistered guns while unlicensed?


If it was anyone else they would have already been charged for having unregistered firearms while unlicensed.

Barcaldine policeman guilty of Weapons Act offences


Tim Misson's case was heard in the Longreach Court on Friday morning

Suspended Barcaldine police sergeant, Tim Misson, has been found guilty of three charges relating to the Weapons Act and fined $2000.
No conviction has been recorded


The case was heard in the Longreach Court on Friday morning after a plea bargaining agreement was reached and the matter was brought forward.

According to the Longreach Leader, prosecutor Kevin Carmont told Magistrate Bradford-Morgan earlier in the week that the matter had had quite an effect on many people and he wanted it proceeded with as expeditiously as possible.

Sgt Misson, 54, was suspended from the Queensland Police Service in April 2017 when he was the subject of an investigation in relation to failing to investigate a matter.

At that time, Police Media said he had been issued with a notice to appear at the Barcaldine Magistrates Court on June 7 for alleged offences relating to the unlawful possession of weapons, and failure to properly store and secure weapons.
Those offences did not relate to his Queensland Police Service firearm.


The officer was found guilty on Friday morning of failing to keep a weapon unloaded, failing to secure a weapon, and possession of stolen property relating to a large quantity of ammunition and weaponry.

An order was made that any ammunition seized be forfeited.
Sgt Misson originally faced eight firearms charges but five were dismissed due to lack of evidence.

Since 2001, Sgt Misson has been a QPS district firearms training officer and senior firearms instructor in the use of Glock pistols, Tasers and R4 semiautomatic assault rifles.

He has also represented the Queensland Police Service in shooting and has competed internationally in clay target shooting events.
He remains suspended from the police service in relation to internal matters of failing to investigate a matter.

From the people who lecture us about firearms and safe storage, some people think only the police can be trusted with guns.

Quote:
Victorian police 'kept weapons to plant on suspects, kidnapped officer': ex-cop's affidavit


Police in Victoria's armed robbery squad kept a stash of weapons to plant on suspects, and "kidnapped and threatened" a fellow officer who refused to take a weapon to a crime scene, according to an affidavit from a retired fraud squad detective.

In a stunning statement, Bill Nash also says that police presented false evidence to the inquest into the death of Graeme Jensen, a convicted bank robber who was fatally shot by police in October 1988 in Melbourne's outer south-east.

His sworn affidavit, obtained by the ABC, raises a raft of potential corruption questions about Victoria Police's former armed robbery squad.

They include the claim by one of its former detectives that the squad kept a "stash of guns … to plant on suspects" — a claim that was investigated and dismissed by an ombudsman more than 10 years ago.

In the affidavit, Mr Nash also says a former armed robbery squad detective told him he was asked to bring a gun to the Jensen crime scene on the day of the shooting.

Mr Nash said the former detective told him he refused to carry out the instruction, and squad members later "kidnapped and threatened" him to keep quiet about what he knew.

Jensen's family has always claimed he was unarmed, and that the weapon — which didn't work and had none of Jensen's fingerprints on it — was planted by police.

Two former detectives have now come forward to support that claim — Mr Nash, and former detective Malcolm Rosenes, who signed an affidavit that said he saw a detective place a sawn-off rifle in Jensen's car after the shooting.


http://www.abc.net.au/news/2018-08-28/vic-police-kept-weapons-to-plant-ex-detect...




Some people wonder how a gun handed in to Victorian Police during an amnesty  ended up in the hands of one Martin Bryant at Port Arthur in 1996.

We’ll never know for sure as nobody has the political balls to have an enquiry about it.
