When Cops Become Robbers - BBC News

Same Story but shorter version:

How an extra GPS tracker on a drug dealer's car unraveled a corrupt Baltimore police force that robbed homeless people and resold confiscated heroin and ecstasy back on the street
Seven of the eight men in the Gun Trace Task Force were arrested March 2017
Wayne Earl Jenkins, Momodu Gondo, Evodio Hendrix, Maurice Ward, Jemell Rayam, Daniel Hersl, and Marcus Taylor were all convicted
Investigation found the men had stolen more than $100,000 from victims
And two of the men even worked to try and have a rival killed for a drug dealer

Check this out, It was a pretty interesting Show.


The Wire is an American crime drama television series set and produced in Baltimore, Maryland. Created and primarily written by author and former police reporter David Simon, the series was broadcast by the cable network HBO in the United States. The Wire premiered on June 2, 2002, and ended on March 9, 2008, comprising 60 episodes over five seasons.

The Wire is lauded for its literary themes, its uncommonly accurate exploration of society and politics, and its realistic portrayal of urban life. However during its original run the show received only average ratings and never won any major television awards. Nevertheless it is regarded by many critics as one of the greatest television series of all time.

I hate TV but I watched most of this series on Youtube where they have broken down the timeline by characters

Omar Comin' Supercut - HBO's "The Wire"

Omar was the antihero who was robbing the dealers and then worked with the cops...
It gets complicated from there...
