"Wanted Dread or Alive" Good Cop, Bad Cop

On Episode 4 "Good Cop, Bad Cop" Host Henry K takes a close look at the harrowing events surrounding the assassination of Ludlow Campbell, a key witness against corrupt police officers in Jamaica. The episode reveals the chilling connections between Campbell's murder and the earlier assassination of reggae icon Peter Tosh, suggesting a systemic pattern of violence perpetrated by those sworn to protect the public. Through firsthand accounts and meticulous investigation, the narrative uncovers the involvement of police officers in orchestrating these heinous acts, thereby highlighting the pervasive corruption within the Jamaican law enforcement system. As the story unfolds, we are compelled to confront the unsettling implications of a justice system that allows such brutality to flourish unchecked and the Uphill Battle faced by the "Good Cops" fighting wars on two fronts.
