The relationship between perpetrators of organized crime and law enforcement officers has long been dramatized by crime fiction. Yet the criminal-to-cop narrative of NYPD Deputy Inspector Corey Pegues, while reading like a subplot from The Wire, is the real deal. Immersive dramatizations and interviews tell the story of Pegues’ origins as a member of NYC’s infamous Supreme Team gang and his subsequent turn towards policing, where he became the first Black commander of one of the most violent precincts in the city. A timely reflection that centres questions of police reform, Cops and Robbers is a lucid tale of dueling intrapersonal identities brought to reckoning.
