They're trying to make us feel bad for Wayne Jenkins in this one. All i need to remember he robbed a midget stripper a few ep back.

Sorta, it’s more to hammer that Wayne is a product of a fricked up department and not that the department is a product of him.
He was awarded for his behavior

The Sean Suiter storyline was a gut punch. Glad I didn’t google anything about him beforehand and get spoiled. This was a fantastic show and it really showed how fricked up our institutions can be. If you know David Simon on Twitter you know this could have been 100x more political but it being based on the reporting of a solid journalist kept him from that- which is why the only real political expounding you got was from the stuff that happened outside the gun trace task force.
Kind of hilarious that the Civil Rights Lawyer’s answer was to throw her hands up and go frick it! It’s all fricked! Which gets us back to Jenkins and most of the police department’s view. frick it, why not. Anyway they’re both wrong and they both suck.

I wished they’d have shown real pictures of all of the police in gttf at the end. That was a bit underwhelming.

it really showed with the justice lady being made up. I get that they wanted someone in there to be idealistic at the start and have their will broken by the end but the actress sucked and the role was a poorly written stereotype of a liberal do-gooder
Everything else from the show is taken from reality, some dialog straight from court records and recordings.

Would recommend The Slow Hustle on HBO Max, which is a documentary about Sean Suiter.
By the way, for both dirty cops and lower level drug dealers I can see how it can get complicated, how the ends justify the means. Some feel compelled to do the wrong things for the right reasons.
The real assholes are at the top of the food chain.

Being a former cop, I’m not a huge fan of the anti-police slant this show and the doc both tend to have at times, but I also understand it because these dudes were extremely corrupt so frick them.
I just finished the show and thought it was great but at the same time gave me a new perspective of what black people are dealing with all over the country, as I’m sure what went on in Baltimore is happening all over the country. Not saying all cops are bad at all, but hopefully this raises awareness and gets some of these a-hole cops off the streets somehow.

The real problem is the war on drugs. It has been a complete failure in preventing abuse of illegal drugs and has dramatically increased violent crimes. Trying to enforce terrible drug policies has created almost all of the police brutality situations, increased corruption, and amplified mistrust.
