From Insider.

Mike Dowd is a former New York City Police Department officer who became involved in drug dealing while on the force. He was arrested in 1992 and later convicted of racketeering and conspiracy to distribute narcotics, serving 12 years in federal prison.

He speaks to Business Insider about how police corruption starts and spreads inside a precinct. He breaks down why some officers turn corrupt, how the NYPD investigates its own, the risks officers take when they cross the line, and how much money is involved in drug-related corruption. He also outlines what could be done to improve police accountability and prevent similar cases.

Dowd now works on podcasts, books, and courses with the New Solutions Network, and is developing a premium cigar line with Adam Diaz.
