Bob Leuci: American Hero or the Biggest Rat in NYPD History? 

It’s 1970’s New York City, crime and drug trafficking is at an all time high and police corruption is rife. One officer went under-cover within his own department, wore a wire and collected evidence, eventually bringing to trial over 50 of his colleagues in the NYPD. Although hailed as a hero by many, Bob Leuci is also the most hated cop in American history. 

Did he rat on his colleagues to save his own skin, as many claim, was he motivated by the pursuit of justice or was he used as a pawn to scape goat the rank and file, while their superiors – many of whom are still in power – got off the hook? 

After a lifetime in Witness Protection, Bob Leuci – and those that despise him – tell their story. Using past and present testimonies, dramatic archive, stylised recreations and a killer 1970’s soundtrack, Blue Code of Silence will bring this story of corruption and betrayal to life.
