Now look at a politician or cop always movign the goal posts.

    Captivating. Ironically it is appealing due to Dowd’s accountability and frankness. Besides, I lived in NEW YORK CITY the first 55 years of my life and witnessed East New York as virtually being a war zone during the period Mike described. With so much crime and corruption it’s easy to understand how a young cop can get entangled. Make a few unwise decisions and you can get yourself in knee deep with little room for escape. Great interview! I look forward to seeing a movie.
