Adams family values
Article Abstract:
Police in both the UK and abroad have been seeking to put a stop to the criminal activities of the notorious Adams family since the late 1980s. Following extensive investigations, it has now been possible to imprison drug dealer Tommy Adams and two of his associates. Police are keen to emphasize that the case of Tommy Adams dispels the myth that some criminals are able to evade capture. It is believed that the members of the Adams family involved in criminal activity are worth more than 50 million pounds sterling.

Officer on drugs charge retires
Article Abstract:
Detective Constable Alan Breakwell has been able to retire early from the West Midlands drugs squad on the grounds of stress, despite having been accused of selling heroin. His retirement will also mean that he will not have to face a police disciplinary hearing on other charges. Informers claim that Breakwell asked them to sell heroin he provided on the streets. The Crown Prosecution Service has decided not to instigate criminal charges, as it feels that there is no realistic prospect of obtaining a conviction.

The true madness of war
Article Abstract:
It is beginning to be acknowledged that war can have extremely significant psychological and physical effects on soldiers. Psychological stress initially manifests itself in battle exhaustion, but in later stages may cause soldiers to freeze completely and be unable to continue fighting. It is becoming clear that most front-line soldiers will experience psychological damage. In many cases, symptoms will persist for a long time.
