- Community's questions about police accountability more urgent than ever
In October 2025, HBO is set to release a powerful documentary that follows years of investigative reporting by award-winning journalist Ronan Farrow. The film chronicles a disturbing case of a serial predator in Johnson City, Tennessee, who managed to evade justice for decades.
The documentary delves into the details of this long-running scandal, which has been marked by claims of corruption and systemic failures within the local law enforcement system. Kat Dahl, the federal prosecutor who was dismissed after investigating the case, will be featured prominently, alongside other subjects at the center of the story.
"The details of this story at times defy belief," Farrow stated. "I'm so grateful to the sources in Johnson City who have helped to bring it to light. In the wake of radical reductions to the federal government's oversight mechanisms for corruption, this community's questions about police accountability are more urgent than ever."
