Just finished watching the 6 episode HBO series about this. It was a really good show. The same guy who made the HBO series The Wire also made this. If any of you'll haven't watch The Wire, it's a 5 season show from '02 to '08. In my opinion it's the best police and gang show ever made!!!
Anybody who watched the wire will tell u its the greatest t.v show EVER. It takes u into the perspective of all the different ppl living in a city(Baltimore) From the police, criminals, drug addicts, kids in the neighbourhood, school, teachers, journalists etc. @@andykeeney1530
@@andykeeney1530 It's some of the greatest tv you'll ever see , incredible writing and characters , the first season isn't an easy watch but by season two it's gotten into your blood and curiosity will get the better of you , persevere , it's worth it .
I don't understand why everyone is so shocked by his crimes? He was only every acting according to his training and experience. I don't think for a moment that nobody higher up realized what he was doing, they knew but chose to turn a blind eye. He was getting results, convictions and drugs and guns off the street, nobody wanted to know more.
Just watched this on Amazon. Well done. Excellent. This was another black mark on American law enforcement. Hope they are all enjoying their time in prison. Unfortunately, criminal behavior by those entrusted to protect and serve continues in cities across the country.
Unfortunately this is only the tip of the iceberg when it comes to the "blue backing the blue". Especially in Baltimore and the surrounding cities & states. You'd like to think that the FBI "clean up" made a permanent difference but that's just not true. After working in Baltimore for the past year, in some instances working directly in hand with city/county/state officers, its really scary how apparent it is. The whole culture of watching out for one another & not being a "rat" or "snitch" has got to go. It only takes one good cop turning a blind eye to become a bad cop and perpetuate the "blue back the blue" even further. Police are supposed to uphold the law and be examples of that. Not rob, terrorize, and destroy the local community. I don't know if anyone is currently doing it on a Wayne Jenkins type level. But the sad reality is, its only a matter of time before a new cop/police force is on the news for the exact same thing.
A couple of these guys are already out. Hersl has terminal cancer, he asked for compassionate release but the judge agreed with prosecutors and said lol no
I lived there at the time. I believe there was 17 officers who were arrested for it. Also the whole central booking jail was being run by gangs and one member knocked up 2 female correction officers at the same time
The thing about criminals is they compartmentalize their lives, they hide it well. Especially if they're smarter, that being said, other people had to have known something. Even if it was just a rumor.
This is a global problem/issue, here in Australia it’s no different. Pretty soon they’ll be replacing these guys with robots, and that’s going to open up another can of worms entirely…don’t think this can ever be solved really.
@1:10 “In Baltimore, the officers would stop you, they make take your money but they wouldn’t arrest you…”. What do you mean “in Baltimore”? The federal government, state police and local police do this everyday to American citizens nationwide. What is the difference between pocketing it directly or using it to pay the over time and bonuses? Or purchasing equipment and “stuff for the department”. To the victimized citizen, there is no difference at all.
One way is legal, one isnt. Stop pretending to be even stupider than you already are being: you're stupid enough. The Roman Emperors had trouble with crooked cops: two millennia won't change greed.
He knew. Then got fired and the new mayor said he was going to put an end to it then reinstated the task force and got fired 6 months later for tax evasion. Shits crazy
In 65 years on the planet, I have yet to see anything (fact, fiction or faction) that portrays Baltimore in a positive light. Even Detroit - a city trying to resurrect itself - seems to hold more hope for it's inhabitants than Baltimore. I get that the folks who call the city home may have a very different POV and I apologize if I'm only seeing the negatives. Police Corruption isn't restricted to one cop in one city but the stats are not pretty.
Just watched. Dear God. God Bless those, BRAVE +Strong + INNOCENT people. I hope the homeless man got some therapy and that he is doing ok. I hope they are all ok. Maybe the man with the horses could let the man who was really struggling hang out or work with him. A little equine therapy.
And I thought the police and prosecution in North Colorado and Southern Wyoming was beyond incompetent and corrupt..... Sgt J. Bpd And some Gpd (Colo.) Along with some from the WY state line?!?.... Should write an instruction manual.
I'm still trying to understand.. he robbed criminals AND innocent people right? I really don't care if he robbed criminals like the looters they talked about in the trailer. Those people got off scot-free for their crimes anyways. But robbing innocent people on some fake traffic stop BS is definitely worthy of jail time.
Got a question for all the police nerds whats the point of having a vest that says police on it and wearing plainclothes why not just wear a regular uniform i thought the purpose of plain clothes division was to be undercover
They were also driving unmarked car. These cops, would walk their target area - looking like civilians. They would quickly wear the vest when using their police powers.
“I Got A Monster” is what Wayne Jenkins would say after he made a big bust. He usually would refer to drug dealers as monsters when he was strong arming them. He was the actually monster
Tbh I would prefer this guy rather than letting criminals being on the streets. He still arrested criminals yet being one himself. And I mean there are way worse criminals out there than this corrupt police so calling him a monster seems a little overboard but I don't know too much from this story so...Anyway I will watch this documentary.
I grew up in O’Donnell Heights in Baltimore City and still live in the City. This is a result of decades of failed Democratic Leadership. People are surprised when like 3 of 4 last 4 Mayors are convicted criminals? 😂 The only difference is that the Leadership was for the criminals. Baltimore is a different beast. You can’t expect to stop the beast, whom doesn’t play by the rules, with an anecdote that plays BY the rules. History has proven this time and time again, both with the Police and the Military. The years since all this happened, it’s a 100% fact that the GTTF was a necessary evil, against an even more unnecessary evil (drugs and murders). Since, Baltimore City has been in the top 3 (if not) the top City when it comes to murders. The number of deaths from ODs is on another level since they took down the GTTF. They robbed criminals and drug dealers, while they had control of the City. Now the criminals run the City. Idc if anyone thinks I’m wrong, but don’t embarrass yourself by saying I’m wrong, if you’ve haven’t lived in the City the last 20 years. People whom live here, felt this was disgusting and wrong at first. Since, they realize just how much of a difference they actually did have being on the streets.
so selling the drug dealers drugs and planting evidence is a necessary evil lol...they did nothing to stop the problems in Baltimore...corruption is not the answer
This is called stupid thinking. No one said anything near related to "Get rid of all cops" but you have to promote that concept so you can ignore the horrible reality. Its stupid thinking. You asked a question of which you don't know their answer but then you go ahead and answer it for them on your own. You got voices in your head, seek help. Police are often the problem.
I get what you’re saying I really do. Yes police officers do rob bad guys of their cash, that’s been happening forever however the same cop that would rob a drug dealer is the same cop that might rob an innocent man in custody which does happen occasionally.
As a police officer, he's held to a higher standard. His job is to arrest them and later provide truthful testimony to put the individual away. It's not in his job description to rip drug dealers. He was a greed driven psychopath and a worse criminal than the ones he was tasked with arresting.
Yeah this sounds about right wish I could say I’m shocked power corrupts and absolute power corrupts absolutely this is why we need robocop you can’t corrupt a computer only it’s programmer can do that this is simply the human condition and this is why we suck

HBO has a show “ We own this city” good show.
Seen it. Jon Bernthal as Wayne Jenkins.
Many characters from the The Wire are in this series
Hes the white denzel from training day 😂
That was a fictional character. The real ones are scarier.
I don't understand why everyone is so shocked by his crimes?
He was only every acting according to his training and experience.
I don't think for a moment that nobody higher up realized what he was doing, they knew but chose to turn a blind eye.
He was getting results, convictions and drugs and guns off the street, nobody wanted to know more.
But don’t worry folks, these were the only cops in the nation doin this, so we’re good now-bullet dodged..whew!

But, they investigated themselves and found no wrongdoing...
YOU CAN'T DO THAT ALONE. LIKE NO ONE KNEW WHAT HE WAS DOING. OK!!!
EXACTLY!
Several others on his team went down with him
I lived there at the time. I believe there was 17 officers who were arrested for it. Also the whole central booking jail was being run by gangs and one member knocked up 2 female correction officers at the same time

Lol. It happened to me in a small Illinois city. Years ago.
One way is legal, one isnt.
Stop pretending to be even stupider than you already are being: you're stupid enough.

It will not suprise me that the Mayor in that city knew about him and his mob.
The Mayor was Crooked too🤢🤢🤢🤢🤢
Thugs being robbed of their drug money by the police? That sounds like a comedy.
He knew. Then got fired and the new mayor said he was going to put an end to it then reinstated the task force and got fired 6 months later for tax evasion. Shits crazy
The politicians *DID* know all about it. But they heard it from their money source, _the drug dealers._
@@ddums89They were robbing everybody. It wasn’t complaints from “thugs” that got them caught up.
Gangster!! Gonna watch it tonight.
If anyone wonders what to do if police officers violate their constitutional oath. The battle of Athens after ww2.

After watching HBO’s We Own This City with Jon Bernthal. I’m so looking forward to see this. When does it come out and where can I watch this?
Amazon Prime, in Canada, has it streaming starting March 1,2023
Soap2day
It’s came out today I put the link up you can watch it for free
@@charlemeH where?
@@charlemeH.how do I get amazim prime
"it erodes our belief in what's right and what's wrong" I'll say it does and then they have the nerve to wonder why people don't trust them anymore?
Let em cook
Brevard county has a few good old boys like this
Never trust a cop, ever!
They caught dirty cops. Big deal.
That's the system working.
Reminds me of the 75 documentry. Michael Dowe.
Off the chain B
It’s hard to expect folks who rub up against such pieces of absolute garbage all day every day to remain pristine. Baltimore is a lost city.
He’s a disgrace he betrayed the public and the badge
Sometimes the best os us aren’t always good people. Now the irony of it is that the criminals are getting robbed.
I remember my Drill Sgt. telling us the Army is a gang and so are the cops.
Jon Bernthal nailed it.
It's like if someone watched The Shield, saw what Vic Mackey did and said, "I can do better."
OH WOW another Mike Dowd.
Way worse... But I feel you.
there's probably a hundred more where he came from and then some.
Where can I watch the movie?
And I thought the police and prosecution in North Colorado and Southern Wyoming was beyond incompetent and corrupt.....
Sgt J. Bpd And some Gpd (Colo.) Along with some from the WY state line?!?....
Should write an instruction manual.
Looks really good. I'm in!
ACAB
This was an amazing documentary! Also check out the show We Own This City that’s based on this! ✊🏽🔥💯
Exciting!
IS THIS WHAT "WE OWN THIS CITY" IS BASED OFF?!?!

Nothing worse than a gangster with a badge!

Super inside job X2
Got a question for all the police nerds whats the point of having a vest that says police on it and wearing plainclothes why not just wear a regular uniform i thought the purpose of plain clothes division was to be undercover
They were also driving unmarked car. These cops, would walk their target area - looking like civilians. They would quickly wear the vest when using their police powers.
It’s not a bad question. Cause the majority of the time you can even tell an undercover police car if you know where to look.
A lot of times plainclothes officers won’t wear their rig until they are makjnng a stop or an arrest
U didn't know? This is policing in America. Happening every day every night all across the country.
Training Day 2 starring Wayne Jenkins
He was pure evil.
Boo hoo he robbed criminals 😅
muito bom
🤩
This is the norm
The question is, what kind of person want to be a police officer? 🤔
That person should not be one.
the shield real edition
We need police to police the police smh
Modern Day "Robbin' Hood" more power to him.
What a fucking dumb comment. The guy was a power hungry leach.
OH NO!
Drug Dealers gettin' robbed!
How dare he!
That's a good cop
I dont see a difference
Well one needs permission to rob extort assault kidnap and kill
Standard US police behavior
POLICE SUCK! The title of this movie does not go with the theme.
“I Got A Monster” is what Wayne Jenkins would say after he made a big bust. He usually would refer to drug dealers as monsters when he was strong arming them. He was the actually monster
Muito bom

Bro, people have no idea what really happened during those riots
Free Jenks
Way different from the tv show

Well for americans it's different. They hate the police and love the criminals. They're a strange folk.
Bro would call drug dealers monsters and then turn around and sell the same shit he stole from them
If he was hurting people who hurt others then I don't care
He had a good career when he was a rookie until sergeant. then he screwed it up
Top
Lots of people looking for their 5 minutes of fame. There is a reason the cops who started this wanted nothing to do with this.

not all the cops are bad
Still more than, “ A few bad apples 🍎”
Only difference between us and them is uniform they aren't morally superior cause of the uniform thru wear
True. But that doesn't mean any of them are "good"
So we got a show about ops robing drug dealers then the drug dealers on cam crying about it. what am i missing?
what your solution? get rid of all the cops? LOL!! Cops arent the problem, HOMY!
This is called stupid thinking. No one said anything near related to "Get rid of all cops" but you have to promote that concept so you can ignore the horrible reality. Its stupid thinking. You asked a question of which you don't know their answer but then you go ahead and answer it for them on your own.
You got voices in your head, seek help. Police are often the problem.
So…are you admitting to being a dealer and participating in organized crime rings?
So when criminals abuse their own people it’s OK. But when a cop plays their game it’s all the sudden criminal
He's a disgrace to law enforcement. Just another doughy buff who thought he was Vic Mackey.
There is NO right or wrong. Just diffrent perspectives
No. No. There absolutely is right and wrong. The powerful taking advantage of their power to hurt the powerless, is always wrong.
Oh, dear! Drug dealers getting robbed and arrested? What's this world coming to? So glad they put a stop to this (not).
I get what you’re saying I really do. Yes police officers do rob bad guys of their cash, that’s been happening forever however the same cop that would rob a drug dealer is the same cop that might rob an innocent man in custody which does happen occasionally.
@@averydaymond1560 he has a fetish for cops...
They didn't arrest drug dealers. They planted guns, and drugs. And even robbed their houses.
Not all was criminals he didn't care who
As a police officer, he's held to a higher standard. His job is to arrest them and later provide truthful testimony to put the individual away. It's not in his job description to rip drug dealers. He was a greed driven psychopath and a worse criminal than the ones he was tasked with arresting.
When you work in a zoo....
When you make a certain group of people systemically at a disadvantage and blame it on something unrelated
