You may have seen headlines or TV commercials referencing Camp LeJeune, the Marine Corps base where contaminated drinking water poisoned service members and their families. This podcast goes beyond the headlines, to tell you the story from the people whose lives were devastated by it. You'll also hear from two of the men who made it their life's mission (and succeeded) to force Congress to pass legislation acknowledging what happened.

In the 1990s, Detective Louis N. Scarcella was legendary. In a city overrun by violent crime, he cracked the toughest cases and put away the worst criminals. “The Hulk” was his nickname.

Then the story changed. Scarcella ran into a group of convicted murderers (who all say they are innocent!) turned jailhouse-lawyers. In prison they realized Scarcella helped put many of them away. They set out to turn the tables on Scarcella while still in prison. And with the help of a NY Times reporter they would succeed.

Thirty years later, more than 20 people Scarcella helped put away have walked free. In the media he’s the “disgraced detective,” the rogue cop who hoodwinked an entire system. 

For years, Scarcella insisted he did nothing wrong. But that’s all he’d say. Until we tracked Scarcella to a sauna in a Russian bathhouse, where he started to talk..and talk and talk. “The guilty have gone free,” he whispered. And then agreed to take us into the belly of the beast ... where justice is done (and undone).

Through conversations with a variety of people who knew Ronald Trimboli, a picture emerges of a charismatic, small-time hustler. An almost comically reckless person, who had a tendency to talk himself into trouble. Ronald's personality is contrasted with alternate suspects, one in particular whose penchant for violence made one of the victims fear for their life.
