Working on a homicide case, he begins to unearth evidence that suggests the entire local justice system is willingly turning a blind eye to the abuses of the this special unit. When his life and that of his girlfriend are threatened because of his probing, he joins forces with his editor, a once-famous reporter, and a renowned private detective to bring down F.R.A.T. and everyone behind it.
