Host Marlon Marrache and guest LAPD Police Detective Charles "Chuck" Bennett (Retired) delve into the extreme violence in Los Angeles during the late 1980s and early 1990s, where divisions like Rampart had a staggering murder rate.
They discuss the public acceptance of aggressive police tactics during the "war on drugs and a war on gangs". The conversation also covers the Ray Perez scandal and his role in implicating many officers with "no evidence", as well as the history of internal affairs surveillance which started because "stupid policemen" were using drugs.
Finally, the duo analyzes the policy of officer-involved shootings involving moving vehicles, drawing lessons from past incidents like the death of Officer Vincent Leusch.
