List of episodes

S1E6 - Anonymous

Cybercrime. The hacktivism's phenomenon arrives in Portugal through the internationalization of the group Anonymous. Nationally, between 2011-2015, several cybercrimes were performed by different groups of hackers. Soon the inspectors conclude these hackers are young people, mostly between the ages 16-21, whose pride and vanity lead to this continued practice. The unusual and surprising depoiment of a repentant hacker and the participation of three inspectors from the PJ allow the documentary to follow the investigation's steps as much as the criminal operation. It covers topics like social rehabilitation and the citizen's cybersecurity in a time where we can't live without internet and we have trouble in managing the "I" in a virtual environment.

S1E7 - Homicídio Rio Trancão

Passional crime. PJ's inspectors are notified that a carbonized body in a very bad condition was found in the shore near the bridge Vasco da Gama. The investigation begins immediately and stopping is forbidden. Experienced depositions from three PJ's inspectors reveal the method followed and the steps taken to detain the authors of a passional crime motivated by jealousy, envy and anger. This case was concluded in a record time.

S1E8 - Remédio Santo

Fraud.  An investigation about a false prescription originates an inquiry that made the Ministério Público (State Prosecution), Polícia Judiciária (Federal Police) and the Ministério da Saúde (Health Ministry) unite efforts in an unprecedented way. The operation Remédio Santo is the first of several operations which ended a fraud that, in total, made the Portuguese State lose more than 100 millions of euros. This episode has the depositions of the Health Minister back then, as well as PJ's inspectors that, in a very technical and synthetic way, guide us through the highlights of the investigation, which constituted, in itself, an apprenticeship to the Polícia Judiciária. The result is an authentic lesson of how to operate and counteract a type of crime considered new at that time.
