Hey..
I (and I'm sure, plenty of others here) just finished watching the "Victorian edition" of a 4 corners episode dedicated entirely to corruption in the former Vic police drug squad (now the "MDID" or something) - it was announced at the start of the show that we (Melbournites) were getting a watered-down version of what the rest of the country apparently got to see, due to 'legal reasons' (read: corrupt coppers on remand still pending trial)! ... now, I've been around here quite a while, many of you have met me, and I'm certainly not involved in law/the police/informing/large scale dealing or any of that sorta shit - I merely, err.. "sample" recreational chems occasionally and have a f'n wicked time doing it .. I'd just be very interested to see what was included in the episode shown across the rest of the country that was obviously edited out in what we saw down here. I'll be going to the abc website shortly to see if there's anything useful there, but I'm sure they're smart enough to have 'watered down' whatever they have online if they did it to the broadcast.
..equally, they must be smart enough to know that there'll be a shitload of interested Victorians (myself being the voice for them here, for the moment!) who would like to see what they weren't "supposed" to, and who will easily be able to get videotapes/transcripts/whatever sent from friends/family/corrupt coppers to them from other states. Given that, could someone either enlighten me as to what we (Vics) missed, or whereabouts a downloadable/snail-mailable copy of the full program is available from?
I have no intention of running around telling everyone who'll listen and every second person who won't that "I know something you don't know, nyerrr!" regarding something this "legally serious" [insert dramatic crime-series music here] - I'm just very curious, having being pretty heavily involved (<-- intentional ambiguity ) - well, "heavily" involved in consuming it - in the "speed scene 8(" here a few years ago (not now, all those who give a fuck!) myself, as to what the full story is.
Other Vics who saw the program in question, please add support by making this a petition of sorts. ... and those who "ain't from around here", please help!
cheers..
[edit: just stuck 'email notification' on, 'cos I don't have anything like the spare (read: newstart ) time I used to to check BL out regularly!]
