That's a good read. An amazing branch of the WA Police.

Great article :Y: for a team of 3 with an analyst covering all that ground they mustn't get much sleep :8 would be interesting to hear some of their experiences and how often they come across the same people, like many crimes there are some crim's that never give up.

when you consider the amount of revenue that the state government gets from mining companies, there should be more put back into this unit & enlarge it, rather than loading such a small team with so much work.

Good article, interesting read. Interesting job I would think, something happening all the time.

I agree, a very enlightening article. I actually didn't realise this unit was still operating.

There are many smaller police units many may not be aware of. Livestock units, investigating rustling and theft. Water unit, water theft, licensing and irrigation etc.
