Crime + Punishment
In this documentary, filmmaker Stephen Maing shines a light on the controversial practice of quota-based policing in the New York Police Department. The film follows a group of whistleblower cops who expose the pressure to meet arrest quotas and the retaliation they face for speaking out.
As the officers navigate the ethical dilemmas of their job, they also grapple with the personal consequences of challenging the system. Through their stories, Maing raises important questions about police accountability and the impact of quotas on communities of color.
Crime + Punishment offers a compelling look at the complexities of modern policing and the struggle for justice within the system.
