In this full-length interview, Corey Pegues shares the story of how a core member of the infamous drug-dealing crew known as the Supreme team, changed his life and become a member of the NYPD but not before having encountered several violent hurdles along the way. Pegues also talks about growing up in Queens during the 70s, racking up nearly $200,000 a day as a collective unit with his drug-selling crew, the moment the crack era hit his neighborhood, and the birth of his child in 1986.  

As the interview moves along, Pegues talks about working for the iconic drug lord, Supreme, and his botched murder attempt of a former rival. He then shares the gritty details about how the Feds took down the Supreme team shortly after he joined the military and how those events led to him taking a police test to become a cop, later on down the line. Later in the discussion, Pegues divulges what it was like to be a member of the NYPD by detailing his progression from training sergeant to Captain to Deputy inspector.

Lastly, Pegues talks about what led to his tumultuous ending with the NYPD, citing his affinity for the Black and Brown community as some of the incidents that caused him to speak out against his fellow police offers. He also shares his thoughts on the death of Eric Garner and the current tenure of Mayor Eric Adams.
