DEA Manual Show How They Train Police To Construct False Chains Of Evidence

(Before It's News)

New disclosures now allow us to see online the DEA training manuals with which Drug Enforcement Administration agents are taught to coach local police departments across the country how to lie about their chains of evidence and sources, how to willfully violate the law and cover their tracks  in thousands or tens of thousands of cases every year in order to fill the cells of the US prison state with drug defendants. These materials depict an amoral, out of control police regime respecting no Constitution and no laws.

DEA agents are told the evidence is unconstitutionally obtained, and that this has to be concealed from prosecutors, judges and above all from the public, some of which is still under the quaint notion that there are laws even cops and prosecutors must obey. The manuals cynically spell out how DEA agents should coach local police departments to use what they know is illegally obtained information in order to construct false chains of evidence. One module puts the issue of using sensitive intelligence in law enforcement a bit more delicately. Per the 2012 lesson plan, the main problem with combining intelligence collection with law enforcement investigations “is the high potential for disclosure of these sensitive sources of information in our open, public trial system.”

Great find.  This proves the corruption of our justice system.  The corruption of a drug war gone greedy.  It’s never been about helping people and has always been about filling their pockets with money.  They say money is the root of all evil and I think that is so close to the truth.  I think people are easily corrupted but money is the corrupter.  Money does all the harm in the world one way or the other and I absolutely hate that a ‘civilized’society still relies on it.  An advanced civilization would never have currency. A civilized society would never divide their brothers and sisters like that.  So obviously we are not there yet.  We are still barbaric, immoral dividers who profit of one another by putting them in prison.  Think about it.
