Ep. 263: The Legal Story Behind ‘We Own This City’

On a special episode of the Pro Say podcast we go behind the scenes of HBO’s hit miniseries We Own This City. The show explores the true story of a corrupt Baltimore Police Department task force that was ultimately charged with an array of crimes, a depiction that lays bare the systemic problems with policing in America and the war on drugs. Lucas Van Engen, one of the stars of the show, and Leo Wise, the federal prosecutor he portrayed join Pro Say this week to discuss the show and the real-life prosecution.
