Dirty filthy scummy TMU pricks

Cop jailed for sexual favours bid
"A TRAFFIC cop will spend nine months in jail for seeking sexual favours from a young P-plater for not giving her a ticket.
Judge Joe Gullaci said Sen-Constable David John Mits, 43, had preyed on the young woman in a deliberate, planned and cold-blooded way.
"It is pre-planned, designed to put maximum pressure on this young woman, and he executes it like a well-planned police operation," Judge Gullaci said.
He jailed a stunned Mits for 24 months, 15 months of which was suspended for three years.
"I accept that you are genuinely ashamed of the impact of your criminal offending," Judge Gullaci told him.
"You betrayed all that the police force stands for by your criminal conduct."
The married father of two, from Boronia, pleaded guilty in the County Court to one count of attempted bribery.
On January 23, Mits told the P-plater, 20, that female motorists had in the past "offered me things to try and get off".
"Very often we get to see legs right up past their thighs, if you get my drift," Sen-Constable Mits said. "Buttons have been known to mysteriously become undone, pretty much all the way down."
Mits, stationed at Knox traffic management unit, pulled the woman over in Bayswater for not wearing a seatbelt.
He then discovered she was not displaying her P-plates.
She had only two demerit points left and said that she needed her licence for work.
Mits told her that he didn't really want to give her a ticket and asked her to persuade him otherwise.
He got her mobile phone number and later called her to ask her what she could offer him, and visited her house in a marked police car.
About 9pm he visited her house in his own car, and she recorded the conversation using her MP3 player.
Defence counsel Barry Schultz said Mits's actions were ill-judged, unwarranted and inexcusable.
"He's a man who seems totally at a loss to explain it," Mr Schultz said.
Judge Gullaci said the woman suffered sleeplessness, had lost confidence in police and had to have counselling.
He described her as a brave and resourceful young woman who was to be commended for recording her conversation with Mits and reporting him.
In the recorded conversation, Mits told the woman: "I don't want you to feel compelled, OK, but people have offered lots of different things, if you get my drift, OK?
"Especially young females have offered me things to try and get off.
"You've got to be -- we have to be very careful, OK, because it's not worth my job, OK, but I do want you not to have to have those tickets."
Mits was suspended from Victoria Police, where he served for 12 years, and later quit"
