This film just brings out the corruption in the L.A. Police Department. It just is so captivating on the investigation of the murders and where one man would go to uncover the truth. The story follows Jack Johnson interviewing Henry Poole to find out information about how Christopher "Biggie" Wallace was killed. Jack Johnson is played by Forest Whitaker and Henry Poole is played by Johnny Depp. This film goes into what the police department was like during that time.
