About this listen

 In this abolition focused true crime podcast we will discuss case after case where a law enforcement officer has committed a crime and how our system of policing facilitated those crimes. Our criminal justice system isn’t broken, it was designed specifically to allow these types of things to happen. Our goal is to show people that cops often do more harm than good and that a new system is not only possible but necessary.Thin Blue Crime True Crime
