MSCOZY avatar reviewed Buddy Boys on
Here we have the true story of some police officers who went too far and turned into crooks themselves. At first, they were frustrated by the system that put these drug dealers right back out on the streets to continue their selling. I think they wanted to hurt them where it mattered most, money. A lofty ambition. But soon it became the thing to do. IAB had been taping some of the cops and they agreed, reluctantly, to wire themselves to catch the other cops doing what they had been doing. A hard decision, either help us get them or go to jail yourselves. The love of money is the root of all evil fits this tale. Very sad.
