Synopsis

Honor Without Integrity is one patrol officer’s personal journey across the "thin blue line" of the Los Angeles Police Department. Set in the backdrop of South Central Los Angeles, Officer Bentley and his partner did whatever it took to arrest, book and ensure convictions of dangerous gang members. As a subplot, they also did whatever it took to make the late nights more exciting and pleasurable on a personal level. LAPD: Honor Without Integrity is dramatic personal testimony and insight offered in a manner that is intriguing, intense and at times humorous. "My training and experience gave me the confidence that I could justify pulling over anyone I pleased. I’m certain I could have justified stopping a car driven by civil rights attorney Johnny Cochran, with Rev. Al Sharpton and Rev. Jesse Jackson as passengers, solely because I felt like it. Like it or not, every person driving through the hood is fair game."
