About this listen

Brooklyn North is the true story of how four Black men were wrongfully convicted of murder—nearly all connected to a once-legendary NYPD homicide detective, Louis Scarcella. Jonathan Fleming, Sundhe Moses, Jabbar Washington, and John Bunn were among dozens of innocent New Yorkers who spent decades in prison—guilty until proven innocent. This Original documentary follows their relentless fight to unveil an insidious pattern of police and prosecutorial corruption in Brooklyn at the height of the war on drugs and a historic peak in violent crime in the 1980s and ‘90s.

Scary

How wrong and unjust that you can be sent to prison for a crime you did not commit because of your colour.

The amazing thing is that these men do not feel bitter, but have gone on to help others.

What kind of thought process let's the guilty go free , and feel happy about it. Shame on them.

Moving

Well put together and fascinating look into the failures of prosecutions. My heart goes out to the innocent who found themselves the targets of injustice.

As equally fascinating as it is appalling

Must listen for anyone who is interested in true crime and criminal investigations. It saddens me everytime I hear these stories.

Important Topics

I enjoyed this story and connected with the individuals. It is a very important issue that is unfortunately still going on since the 80's and 90's. It must be stopped.
