| Wow that got dark real quick, mind sharing any links/evidence? Never would have thought NZ has a CSAM problem. |

| ▲ | jasonfarnon 2 days ago | parent | next [-] | | I mean, the headline says "second". Anything greater than 0 is bad but seems a little short of a "plague". | | |
| ▲ | lostlogin 2 days ago | parent | next [-] | | The first link appears to say 22 cases. 12 have faced sanction. | | |
| ▲ | jasonfarnon a day ago | parent [-] | | 1. 22 "investigated" as part of a wide scope review, ie, it could mean an entire department was investigated 2. review was for "staff internet usage" so those sanctions could be for anything from regular internet porn or gambling sites or whatever else violates their employment conditions 3. OP said the plague was among "top-level police officers" |

| ▲ | ebbi 2 days ago | parent | prev [-] | | Anything greater than 0, in leadership roles of the organization that should be one the most highly trusted in the country, is a plague. | | |
| ▲ | jasonfarnon 2 days ago | parent | next [-] | | so you would call it a "plague" if it was just one guy? hopefully you can see how ridiculous that would work out in practice. | | |
| ▲ | defrost 2 days ago | parent [-] | | From the sysadmin PoV it's never "one guy" or even "just two"; what is common, however, is just one or two policemen, one or two soldiers, or one two judges make the news and the limelight of public prosecutions. It's good to be seen to be tackling this kind of behaviour, rarely ever good (apparently) to fully rip the band aid off and report just how wide spread such behaviour can go. |

| https://www.nzherald.co.nz/nz/auckland-police-officer-matthe... Here’s one. There are more. Don’t be so naïve as to think any single country is free from these kinds of issues. |

| I can't find the stat, but if memory serves me correctly, NZ over-indexes in CSAM-related crime. It's unfortunate, but it's not always good news down on our little islands. |

| Why not? It’s the same as everywhere else, it has men. Just knowing that places like Kiwi Farms exists is enough evidence of good number of garbage people |
