NYPD Whistleblower: "They Set Me Up." - Steven Lee | DEEP FOCUS with John Kiriakou

Deep Focus with John Kiriakou features a gripping interview with former NYPD sergeant and whistleblower Stephen Lee, who went undercover to expose corruption inside one of the largest police departments in the world. According to Lee, what began as routine inspections quickly uncovered a hidden network of illegal activity involving prostitution, drugs, and officers taking bribes—pulling him into a high-risk operation where trust was scarce and the consequences were potentially deadly.As the investigation deepened, Lee reveals how the very system meant to protect him began to break down, exposing troubling realities within Internal Affairs and law enforcement itself. From being pressured to fabricate charges to fearing for his life, this is a firsthand account of what happens when someone dares to challenge corruption from the inside.02:46 – “I Thought It Was a Normal Assignment… I Was Wrong”03:41 – “Inside NYC’s Secret Karaoke Prostitution Network”05:12 – “How Cops Were Quietly Getting Paid Off”07:52 – “My Boss Asked Me to Fake a Rape Case”09:07 – “They Forced Me to Go Undercover”12:15 – “The Moment I Knew I Might Be Exposed”14:22 – “What I Saw Behind Closed Doors Was Insane”21:04 – “The Hidden Power Structure Inside the NYPD”23:47 – “They Handed Me Drugs and Cash… in Public”27:19 – “The Operation Was Compromised”36:32 – “I Realized They Could Kill Me and Get Away With It”43:24 – “Why They Shut the Whole Thing Down”To Support Steven's Work:https://www.change.org/NYPDRetaliationAlso thanks to our Sponsors:Get your complimentary Gold Guide here!Visit https://JohnLovesGold.com to get your free copy now or call (888) GOLD-053.
