They were decorated NYPD detectives, patrolling the streets of
Brooklyn at the height of New York’s organised crime era. But
behind the badge, Louis Eppolito and Stephen Caracappa were
secretly working for the mob – passing on intel, setting up hits
and helping the Lucchese crime family stay one step ahead.

In this episode of Crime at Bedtime, we walk through how two New
York City cops allegedly became paid Mafia insiders, how bodies
began to pile up across Brooklyn and Staten Island, and how it
took years for investigators to finally connect the murders back
to the detectives who were supposed to be solving them. From mob
meetings and whispered tips to ambushes on quiet streets, we
follow the trail that led to the infamous “Mafia Cops” case.

If you’re drawn to stories of police corruption, the American
Mafia and classic New York true crime from the 1980s and 1990s,
this one is for you. Settle in, close your eyes, and let the
story of the Mafia Cops unfold.
