In Helsinki's drug policing scene, two journalists' probing into potential corruption leads them to Jari Aarnio, the unit's head. Their investigation, unveiling a web of secrets, culminates in Aarnio's 2019 sentencing for several serious crimes, including drug offenses. This case, evolving over years into Finland's most extensive trial, highlights issues of corruption and betrayal, painting a complex portrait of Aarnio, a figure once highly respected in law enforcement.
