Cop: A Journalist Infiltrates the Police
by Velentin Gendrot Author
This book recounts a French undercover journalist’s two-year journey into the police force, where he became the first journalist to infiltrate undetected. Within three months of training, he was given a permit to carry a weapon in public and assigned to a tough area of Paris with high tensions between the law and locals.
Gendrot witnessed police brutality, racism, blunders, and cover-ups, as well as the oppressive working conditions officers endured. He also experienced a colleague’s tragic suicide. Cop is a gripping exposé of a world never before seen by outsiders, shedding light on institutional power and accountability.
