Revealed: How freemasons are used to corrupt justice system

Secret networks of Freemasons have been used by organised crime gangs to corrupt the criminal justice system, according to a bombshell Metropolitan Police report leaked to The Independent.

Operation Tiberius, written in 2002, found underworld syndicates used their contacts in the controversial brotherhood to “recruit corrupted officers” inside Scotland Yard, and concluded it was one of “the most difficult aspects of organised crime corruption to proof against”.

The report – marked “Secret” – found serving officers in East Ham east London who were members of the Freemasons attempted to find out which detectives were suspected of links to organised crime from other police sources who were also members of the society.

Famous for its secret handshakes, Freemasonry has long been suspected of having members who work in the criminal justice system – notably the judiciary and the police.

Devil worshipers are those proclaiming the Free Masons are devil worshipers. What a crock.

It's a clubhouse full of old men eating, drinking coffee and talking about the "good old days".

Yeah, right...walk into a Pentecostal or Baptist Church if you're not one of those two faiths, and you'll really see some rituals you don't understand.
