A decorated policeman is revealed to be a murderer.

Detective Roger Rogerson was once a legend of the NSW police force.

He scooped up robbers, shot up bad boys, solved murders and never said sorry.

But as it turned out, he was as corrupt as they came. And even committed murders himself.

Roger Rogerson died on January 21, 2024 aged 83, after suffering a brain aneurysm in his cell at Long Bay prison in Sydney.

With his death one of the most notorious law enforcement chapters in Australian history was finally buried, along with many secrets.  

Tim Clarke is joined by author and former detective Duncan McNab to detail Rogerson’s spectacular fall from grace.

And how he became known as the most corrupt police officer the nation has ever known.
