    S12, Chapter 3: The Randy Cox Thing
    2026/08/03
    On the floor of a New Haven holding cell, paralyzed, while the officer standing over him laughed and asked why he kept winking, Randy Cox said: "I need somebody to take me seriously."

    It's on page 17 of a 70-page internal affairs report, no news outlet ever printed it, and it's the reason this episode exists.

As a cop, he spent his life trying to become the kind of person who makes others feel safe. The person you can trust.And the disease that lived in his childhood home found him anyway.
