Trading Standards in Nottinghamshire had inside information for a year
that Notts Police officers were involved in a hardcore pornography racket
but they refused to investigate.
Trading Standards in Mansfield and West Bridgford were sent detailed
information of the porn racket but after a year they had done nothing. News
Alliance had to intervene in the public interest to get the job done.
The complete inaction of Trading Standards proves that shoddy
organisation does not work in the public interest. Particularly when it
comes to exposing police corruption.
The reason Trading Standards did not act was to prevent another
corruption scandal. Some Trading Standards officers are also former police
officers with ongoing contact with serving cops…
The porn racket led by PCSO Martyn Barsby was blatant. He downloaded
hardcore porn from the internet, burnt the files to DVD, printed the front
of the disk, then sold the DVDs for £3 each. Most of his customers were
serving ‘police officers’ in D Division.
Not one of his colleagues reported him and that makes them equally
corrupt. Every one of Barsby’s male and female colleagues at Eastwood Police
Station was aware of his criminal trade and did nothing.
In April 2006, Barsby tipped off Alan Grainger that he was about to be
raided by Trading Standards and police on suspicion of DVD piracy. Grainger
had a previous conviction for DVD and CD piracy.
Barsby helped him to avoid arrest and prosecution for a second time.
After the scandal was exposed by News Alliance in February this year,
Barsby’s commanding officer Insp. Andrew Browning was demoted to Sgt for
allowing the scandal to be exposed.
In September, Chief Supt. David Wakelin was promoted sideways and lost
control of D Division. News Alliance asked the Home Office in June to
investigate Wakelin’s contacts with the criminal underworld in Nottingham…
Operation Strikeback is now in full train and the overall problem in the
area will be eradicated by the end of 2012.
Trading Standards refuse to comment on why they sat on evidence of police
corruption and did nothing.
Police informant Andrew Chrich who set up Barsby’s porn piracy racket has
not been arrested and questioned. Notts Police are terrified of opening
Pandora’s box because they know where it will lead…
Therefore, Chrich has not been arrested to avoid another police
corruption scandal in Notts. Chrich also rejected an offer to cooperate with
the Notts Police Authority and DCC Chris Eyre but they have not yet
authorised his arrest and questioning.
The IPCC whitewash brigade offered their appalling services but the
entreaty was rejected out of hand.
