And it comes from within the ranks of his own police unit. It’s 2018, and Glenn Matthews’s colleagues are accusing the detective sergeant of sharing intimate sexual videos of a police suspect with his workmates. When the complaint is lodged, NSW Police take action. Six months later, the sergeant is criminally charged with eight counts of distributing intimate images without consent. The trial is lengthy.

But what happens next unravels the entire case against Sergeant Matthews and reveals what can go wrong when police investigate police in New South Wales.
