Fitzroy Pointon Posted June 26, 2020 Share Posted June 26, 2020 Tried in vain to find a documentary thread to put this on. Watched this last night. Absolutely incredible doc about police corruption in Precinct 75, NYC in the 1980s. These guys were 80% gangster 20% policeman. Making tens to hundreds of thousands of dollars a time doing stick ups and robberies. They're favourite jobs were robbing money from drug dealers houses. They also worked closely with a Dominican gang and were really big earners for them. I know some people say our police are corrupt but nothing to the extent of these guys. Highly recommended.

Any link to the film Copland, looks familiar. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Serpico would have been referred to as a "bad guy" by the corrupt cops, whereas those who were open to bribes and corruption were "good guys". Mental.
