Patrolman P background

Patrolman P

In the early 1970s, a dedicated NYPD officer, Frank Serpico, dares to defy the status quo by revealing the widespread corruption within the department.

The Knapp Commission investigates corruption in the New York Police Department in 1971, but faces a challenge when their main source, Frank Serpico, refuses to wear a wire. They find a solution when corrupt cop William Phillips agrees to become an undercover agent in exchange for immunity, leading to the indictment of thirty police officers.
