75 Fail Drug Test. 75 Boston Police Officers, That Is.
    #5917628 - 07/31/06 02:56 AM (17 years, 6 months ago)

75 OFFICERS FAILED CITY DRUG TESTS
by Suzanne Smalley, Globe Staff, (Source:Boston Globe)

Cocaine Use Most Prevalent, Raising Concern

Since Boston police started annual drug testing in 1999, 75 officers have failed the tests, and 26 of them flunked a second test and were fired, newly released statistics show.

Acting Police Commissioner Albert Goslin said an additional 20 of the officers who tested positive left the department on their own, which he said is because they could not handle the frequent follow-up checks.

Of the 75 officers, 61 tested positive for cocaine, 14 for marijuana, two for ecstasy, and one for heroin, according to the figures, obtained by the Globe through a public records request. ( Some officers had more than one drug in their system ).

I think it's important to note that this article is really saying that in the past seven years, 75 officers tested negative, or about 11 officers annually.

I don't think those numbers are terribly surprising, considering the size of Boston's police force.

I think our government is corrupt. I think our Police are drug adicts and the states write tickets primarily for revenue.

Recent news ran a story about a prison guard getting shanked because he did things "by the book". I think that says it all about our prison system. Didn't you hear about the New Orleans police looting their own city? Baltimore has one fucked up police force as well. Not a week goes by without a new story about the fucked up things they do. One man was recently awarded 40 million dollars because a prison gaurd dragged the man out of his cell and slammed the guys head into the wall while his hands were cuffed behing his back. The man was paralyzed from the neck down. Recently Baltimore police raped an underage girl AT THE POLICE STATION... AND then we don't even need to bring up the international US military abuses of detainees and "enemy combatants" to whom The Supreme Court recently ruled the Geneva Conventions DO APPLY. So, yeah. Our government is corrupt at all levels. There's so very much more I could bring up as far as corruption goes -but I think anyone who can deny the corruption with a straight face obviously has thier head up their ass and fails to read or watch the news. It's just plain ignorance to dismiss the facts.

How many police officers didn't fail? Boston is a big city, there must be alot of clean (drug free) cops there if in 7 years only 75 officers failed the test. That's almost 11 per year. I bet that's not even 1% of the police force, big fucking deal IMO.

http://www.cityofboston.gov/police/pdfs/2004annual_report.pdf

2015 as of 2004

so about 4%

Now how many are dirty that knew how to clean up for the test.
I don't know about you guys but I've never failed a test and I'm not exactly what you'd call clean. The article said Annual test, not random. What this means is that being that the majority of them tested positive for cocaine, that 4% of the Boston police force is so hopelessly addicted to coke that they can't clean up in time for the test. Not that only 4% do drugs.

That's pretty fucking sad when you can't clean up for 3 or 4 days for your once a year piss test!

And what the fuck is that bit about being tested a second time? You can't even keep your job at MacDonalds' if you fail a piss test! Why are these guys allowed to be in charge of people's lives when they aren't even fit to serve burgers?!?
