Back to EpisodesWhen Badge Guys Finish Last: How Mafia Power & Intrigue Corrupted the Cops
Description
In this episode of Up+Adam, Adam chats with bestselling author and award-winning journalist Michael Cannell to discuss his latest book, Blood and the Badge: The Mafia, Two Killer Cops, and a Scandal That Shocked the Nation. The book dives deep into the true story of Louie Eppolito and Stephen Caracappa, two NYPD detectives who worked as Mafia hitmen while on the city’s payroll. It’s a tale of betrayal, corruption, and justice served decades too late. For the first time in forty years, the former New York Times editor unearths the full story behind two ruthless New York cops who acted as double agents for the Mafia.
It’s a great read.
