In a home ruled by violence and paranoia, loyalty wasn’t a choice... it was survival. Then came the Family Secrets Trial, exposing 18 unsolved murders and tearing the mob apart. But before the headlines, the real story started inside the Calabrese family. This season on Underbelly: Killing Kurt, Kurt Calabrese shares his story of the betrayal that took down his father, the violence at home, and the cost of growing up in the mob.

We’re sharing the first episode of the brand new podcast Spotlight: Snitch City, produced by The Boston Globe's award-winning Spotlight team.

In this specific episode, you’ll find yourself on the docks of New Bedford, hearing whispers about a rogue police officer harassing fishermen and stealing drugs, all of which come to a head one late night aboard a scalloping boat. The officer forces his way on board, saying an informant told him there would be drugs on board, and demands some. But when another officer, Mark Raposo, shows up, he thinks his colleague is in the middle of a “drug rip.” Now Raposo is ready to blow the whistle on what he’s seen. And it turns out that this officer’s abuse of the informant system is just the tip of the iceberg in this historic port city.
