End of Tour

NYCHA cop Pete Thron hit the streets during the era of crack cocaine and the war on drugs in Upper Manhattan.

He goes from walking a beat in uniform to conducting undercover operations, squeezing snitches for information, and arresting hundreds of criminals. Then in a split second, his career came crashing down during a buy-and-bust operation gone awry, becoming victim to the city’s brutal police politics.

Finding himself behind bars and betrayed by the job he loved and bled for, Thron switches gears to give a brutally honest portrait of a street cop serving time in the New York penal system among the hardened criminals he once arrested. Thron’s story gives a gripping picture of what it means to protect, serve, and defend among the ranks of New York's finest in the midst of deep-seated police corruption.
