The critically acclaimed book on the crimes of the now notorious Detective Sergeant Derek Ridgewell, written by authors Graham Satchwell and Winston Trew.

Satchwell and Trew reveal in stark detail a police culture that not only enabled Ridgewell to operate as he did - stealing, perjuring, and 'fitting up' countless young mostly Black men - but also the impact of his crimes on the people he wronged and their families.

The book is a frightening insight into the banality and ease with which police power can be abused and the catastrophic effect it can have.

GameTheory is developing Rot at the Core as both a feature documentary and limited drama series.
