Sinopsis

With his colleagues at the People's Law Office (PLO), Taylor has argued landmark civil rights cases that have exposed corruption and cover-up within the Chicago Police Department (CPD) and throughout the city's political machine, from aldermen to the mayor's office. Taylor and the PLO gathered evidence from multiple cases to bring suit against the CPD, breaking the department's 'code of silence' that had enabled decades of cover-up. The legal precedents they set have since been adopted in human rights legislation around the world.
