Inspector Norman Cox who had £750.000 of cash that his brother had earnt from his own private "Slave trade"
gets' of with a warning The spokesman stressed that "there was no suggestion Mr Cox had been directly involved in the money laundering operation". Well naturally whats the big three quarters of a million quid stashed in his back garden which was found by a special team from Kent investigating a mega money laundering scam which just happened to be run by his brother and nephew. You wouldn't want to waste money prosecuting a bent cop when you need every penny to harass and frame innocent demonstrators.

A police inspector has been sacked after the discovery of £75,000 buried in his back garden during an investigation into money laundering.
Inspector Norman Cox, 57, was dismissed from Norfolk Police, following an internal inquiry after the cash was found at his home in Barford, Norwich.
His property was searched by officers from Kent Police as part of an inquiry into allegations of money laundering.
Mr Cox was not charged but received a caution on the advice of the CPS.
'Unacceptable behaviour'
A Norfolk Police spokesman said: "Norfolk Constabulary can confirm that a 57-year-old male police officer has been dismissed from the force following a police disciplinary tribunal.
"The Professional Standards Department launched an internal investigation in relation to criminal proceedings taken by Kent Constabulary.
"The officer was dismissed from the force after receiving a criminal caution.
"His behaviour fell far below the standard which we expect, is corrupt and the constabulary will do all it can to root out unacceptable behaviour within our own ranks."
Illegal workers scam
The spokesman stressed that there was no suggestion Mr Cox had been directly involved in the money laundering operation.
He said Mr Cox had worked for the force for nearly 30 years, serving as a custody inspector in Norwich before taking up a position as inspector at Great Yarmouth.
The tribunal followed the conviction in March of Mr Cox's twin brother Victor, 57, and his nephew Jayson Cox, 35, for employing up to 1,700 illegal workers in a multi-million pound scam to defraud large farms and factories in Kent.
The pair were each jailed for seven years after being found guilty of charges including conspiracy to defraud and facilitating the entry of illegal immigrants into the UK following a trial at Canterbury Crown Court.
