HBO to shoot Baltimore-set adaptation of Sun reporter Fenton’s book on GTTF police unit; David Simon a producer

Fenton, who continues to cover the police department for The Sun, said, “When I put the book together I made a big timeline not only of the trial but events in the city,” such as the death of Freddie Gray in 2015 from injuries suffered while in police custody. ”It was put to me that this is the stuff of a book.”
