The astonishing story of former Montreal police investigator Benoit Roberge

Once known for putting bikers behind bars, but now accused of selling police information to the Hells Angels—and insight from other officers who have walked that thin line between cop and criminal. A joint investigation by CBC Radio-Canada's Enquête and The Fifth Estate.

Benoit Roberge retired from the police force in August 2013 and began working as an investigator at Revenue Quebec. The source who heard Charlebois’ recordings told Enquete that Roberge boasted that his new job gave him access to sensitive information.
