A Freedom of Information application by Richard McDonald dated 20 January 2014 has revealed that NSW Police officers had six hundred and fifteen individual criminal convictions ranging from assault causing actual bodily harm, malicious injury, drug possession, motor vehicle theft, fraud, culpable driving, high range PCA drink driving, speeding, domestic violence and much more recorded against their names - either before joining, during training or once they were deployed as serving officers.
A shocking statistic, which ABC News calculates as 1 in every 40 NSW police officers having criminal records.
