PREVIEW: The Dark Side of Hollywood

We introduce Pat Tapia, a 38-year law enforcement veteran and retired homicide detective for the LA County Sheriff’s department. We examine the city’s insidious underbelly from 1992 to 1993 from gang wars to the nightclub scene.

We explore the seedy characters who played a starring role in Hollywood’s dark side and how it may have led to Brett Cantor’s mysterious murder.
