New Zealand Police Force: Lies, misrepresentations, evidence ruled inadmissible (case-law summaries)

[2009MzNZ]

I really don't care what people say about the police. But everyone should respect them. Yes just like the rest of us they can not be perfect. And yes the law/police make mistakes. Yes I feel bad for those wrongly convicted. But I could not live in a world without police. When my car was stolen I called them and even though everything was stripped they still found the car. So thank you to the police, nurses, CYFS, and teachers.
