“This true story of police corruption and undercover assignments will have you reeling”- This true story of police corruption and undercover assignments will have you reeling. “All crime revolves around the financial powerhouse that is the drug trade. And drugs and paedophilia go together like a hand in a glove.”” Glen McNamara joined the NSW Police Force when he was 17 and was sworn in as a constable at 19. A career as a detective beckoned and soon Glen was tracking down the notorious Warren Lanfranchi who was dealing drugs with Neddy Smith, and disgraced cop Roger Rogerson, who was making deals in Redfern. This is Inner Sydney in the heat of the 1980s and the cash and drugs flowing freely.
