In this weeks episode of the Wide Awake Podcast I speak to Michael Dowd. He is considered the most Corrupt Cop In New York’s history. During his career Dowd stole money and dealt drugs while patrolling the streets of Brooklyn. He was also a criminal associate of the Diaz organisation. When he was eventually caught he was facing life in prison and upon his release a True Crime documentary called The Seven Five was filmed and it detailed Dowd's Life as a Dirty Cop. During this episode we talked about the events that led Dowd to a life of crime. How much money he made from stealing, drug dealing and working with gangsters. The time he confronted a man that placed a hit on him. The corruption that spread though New York’s police force. How he was eventually caught. His life in prison and much more!
