520 Michael Armstrong has spent close to fifty years either
defending or prosecuting criminal cases in New York City.
His public service has included stints as District
Attorney for Queens County, New York, and chief of the
Security Frauds Unit in the U.S. Attorney's office in
Manhattan. None of his experiences were as tense or as
dangerously waged as the Knapp Commission's investigation
into police corruption, prompted by the New York Times's
report on whistleblower cop Frank Serpico. Based on
Armstrong's vivid recollections of this watershed moment
in law enforcement accountability.
