The Rob Ford Story - the fifth estate

Crack cocaine. Alcohol. Friends who have criminal backgrounds. Just over a year ago, Toronto Mayor Rob Ford stood next to Police Chief Bill Blair promising to fight gang crime. Now the two most powerful men in Canada's largest city are locked in a struggle only one is likely to survive. the fifth estate's Gillian Findlay has more on the man who has become the world's most controversial mayor - and the real story behind that first notorious video.

Exhibit A and forensic files are some of the best true crime series because they don't sensationalize stories. The tone is appropriate for the subject matter.. With all due respect!

I’m not saying they should be given a pass and not held accountable, but I am saying we need to have a little more compassion, and treat them as you would treat someone with any other disease. That’s with an understanding that these are sick ppl, who didn’t choose to have an addictive personality disorder.

    Decades ago, Richard Pryor, referenced corruption in the legal systems punishment of disadvantaged people; " Justice? There is no justice JUST US!" Although some will disagree I personally feel that statement has proven true a countless number of times.

    @@marcuscassius388 100% facts. That's why our government was so quick to condemn him n expose him. Every politician does dirt under the table. Lots worse then getting drunk n high. They just wanted Ford gone cuz he was actually trying to pump the people's money back to the people. Meaning hospitals, public events, community centers, and welfare.
