Corruption in the Police has to be zero tolerance and harshly enforced. They chose to take the job and then shield criminals. How many of those drivers should have been taken off the road because of points they accumulated?
Punishment is to protect the public, punish the guilty and deter others. Deterrence alone merits a stay inside for those two.
It's interesting that it only got found out because of a completely unrelated issue. How many more people are doing the same?
This was a serious case of multiple issues of corruption.
Not just deleting speeding convictions, also for checking on specific vehicles for offences for the police officers information. I assume this was to allow the police to persue certain people.
There was also an issue of passing on information about other crimes without authorisation.
We don't know the full extent of the corruption.
So for Bod to suggest it was a small case of a few speeding fines was a distortion of the real situation.
