America’s Most Corrupt Police Unit | The Scandal Behind HBO’s We Own This City

Video Description

I Got a Monster tells the explosive true story that inspired HBO’s We Own This City. At the heart of this gripping documentary is Baltimore’s Gun Trace Task Force—a supposed elite police unit that morphed into a criminal syndicate under Sergeant Wayne Jenkins. Through brazen robberies, drug dealing, planted evidence, and abuse of power, these officers terrorized citizens with impunity. Featuring real victims, whistleblowers, and defense attorneys, the film lays bare a justice system that looked the other way. This is not fiction. This is the raw, disturbing truth behind one of America’s most corrupt police units. Original Title : I Got a Monster Director : Kevin Abrams Writers : Brandon Soderberg, Baynard Woods
