Bad Boy, Bad Boys, whatcha gonna do?! In this episode we investigate the police! We look back at their history and trace it to our current moment to better understand who they protect (spoiler: it isn't the majority of us) and why they get away with brutality and murder. Who's holding them accountable?! Definitely not the police union!
