'We Own This City' is a six-part HBO adaptation of Justin Fenton's book that dramatizes the real-life 2017 scandal that engulfed the Baltimore Police Department's Gun Trace Task Force
, and a police force furious over the prosecution of the officers blamed for Gray’s demise, to the point that numerous cops either resigned or refused to make arrests—thus making Jenkins’ GTTF, despite its innumerable controversies, a celebrated unit.
Simon and company weave a tapestry of fraught sociopolitical threads, with racial discrimination and unrest, bureaucratic roadblocks, and conflicting self-interests all conspiring to thwart meaningful reform. At the center of that futile effort to affect change is the Department of Justice’s Nicole Steele , who along with recently assigned underling Ahmed Jackson strives to craft a consent decree that under-fire new police commissioner Kevin Davis and mayor Catherine Pugh will approve.
