About this listen

Brooklyn North is the true story of how four Black men were wrongfully convicted of murder—nearly all connected to a once-legendary NYPD homicide detective, Louis Scarcella. Jonathan Fleming, Sundhe Moses, Jabbar Washington, and John Bunn were among dozens of innocent New Yorkers who spent decades in prison—guilty until proven innocent. This Original documentary follows their relentless fight to unveil an insidious pattern of police and prosecutorial corruption in Brooklyn at the height of the war on drugs and a historic peak in violent crime in the 1980s and ‘90s.

The misuse of law and the wholesale racism of American police forces is abhorrent. That the statute of limitations and the departmental backing of officers who have knowingly forced innocent people into prison because of their skin colour but are getting off Scott free is wickedness beyond measure.
I am under no illusion that Racist Cops are only an American problem, but without the beginning of a conversation about what is happening, nothing will change.
I highly recommend this series.

Absolutely Heartbreaking .

Of course I knew about the high frequency of miscarriage of justice in the US, but this documentary not only provided figures, it put actual "faces" to those figures.

I found this story fascinating and I just didn't want to stop listening. Well done to the team who put this together. Very informative, yet deeply touching

Fascinating, well-documented, heart rending
