NOTES
Title from title frames
This bracing new documentary traces the roots of police corruption when policeman Bob Leuci turned on his fellow officers and brought down New York's most corrupt police unit. This was the case that showed the dangerous underbelly of secrecy which penetrates policing in this country. Bob Leuci earned the distinction of the NYPD's biggest “rat” because he was the first to cross the so called “blue code (or wall) of silence” where police do not offer evidence against other officers who have acted inappropriately, criminally or worse. Recent nationwide events have shown that 4 decades later, only now is the blue code (or wall) of silence actually starting to crumble
