NYPD Detective on Murder, Mobsters & Old New York | Jason Allison

Jason Allison looks back on 20 years in the NYPD, from growing up in the Bronx and working anti-crime and narcotics to investigating homicides, armed robbery crews, and federal cases with the ATF. We also discuss the darker side of 1990s New York, the club scene that inspired his new noir novel The Killing Yards, and his transition from detective to fiction writer.Get Jason's book "The Killing Yards" here:https://a.co/d/09pXcZeTor here:https://www.penguinrandomhouse.com/books/830859/the-killing-yards-by-jason-allison/Today's Sponsors:GhostBed ⬇️https://www.ghostbed.com/houseFOR 10% off! Blue Chew ⬇️https://bluechew.com/Get 1 month free when you buy 2 of BlueChew Gold with code "HOUSECALL"For ad free video and audio and access to live streams and Eyes On Geopolitics...JOIN OUR PATREON! https://www.patreon.com/c/TheTeamHouseTo help support the show and for all bonus content including:-live shows and asking guest questions -ad free audio and video-early access to shows-Access to ALL bonus segments with our guestsSubscribe to our Patreon! ⬇️https://www.patreon.com/TheTeamHouseSupport the show here:⬇️https://www.patreon.com/TheTeamHouse___________________________________________________ORDER JACK'S NEW BOOK "THE MOST DANGEROUS MAN" ⬇️⬇️⬇️⬇️⬇️https://www.penguinrandomhouse.com/books/803651/the-most-dangerous-man-by-jack-murphy/paperback/Subscribe to the new EYES ON podcast here:⬇️https://www.youtube.com/@EyesOnGeopoliticsPod/featured__________________________________Jack Murphy's book "We Defy: The Lost Chapters of Special Forces History" ⬇️https://www.amazon.com/We-Defy-Chapters-Special-History-ebook/dp/B0DCGC1N1N/——————————————————————Or make a one time donation at: ⬇️https://ko-fi.com/theteamhouseSocial Media: ⬇️The Team House Instagram:https://instagram.com/the.team.house?utm_medium=copy_linkThe Team House Twitter:https://twitter.com/TheTeamHousePodJack’s Instagram:https://instagram.com/jackmcmurph?utm_medium=copy_linkJack’s Twitter: https://twitter.com/jackmurphyrgr?s=21Team House Discord: ⬇️https://discord.gg/wHFHYM6"Karl Casey @ White Bat Audio"00:00 – Start01:18 – Growing Up in the Bronx06:07 – What 1980s New York City Was Really Like09:02 – Crime, AIDS & Giuliani’s New York14:31 – The 1990s NYC Club Scene22:20 – Why Jason Became an NYPD Officer24:39 – Starting Out as a Bronx Patrol Cop28:21 – Street Racing, Prostitution & Hunts Point31:08 – CompStat, Quotas & Policing by the Numbers36:51 – Joining the NYPD’s Anti-Crime Unit41:55 – Narcotics, OxyContin & Making Detective49:14 – Becoming a Bronx Detective53:34 – Working Homicides & the Victims True Crime Ignores1:03:19 – Cooperators, Federal Cases & Building Bigger Investigations1:08:08 – The Suitcase Torso Murder1:09:08 – How Detective Work Changed With DNA, Cameras & Body Cams1:22:39 – The Murder Case That Ended With a Severed-Head Selfie1:26:19 – Joining ATF & Going After Armed Robbery Crews1:29:28 – Tracking a Watch Store Robber Across the Country1:34:04 – The Murder Case That Stayed With Him1:38:39 – Surveillance From an NYPD Helicopter1:46:17 – Retiring After 20 Years in the NYPD1:55:05 – Trying to Reinvent Himself as a Writer2:01:23 – Crime Fiction, Male Readers & the Writers Who Influenced Him2:02:29 – Discovering His Half-Brother Was Also an NYPD Detective2:08:10 – The Departed, Ambition & What Drives Criminals2:14:29 – Russian Mafia, Israeli Organized Crime & the Diamond District2:17:42 – Writing The Killing Yards & Recreating 1990s New York2:19:22 – What Jason Is Writing Next2:20:24 – Closing ThoughtsBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-team-house--5960890/support.
