Description
John Sutherland joined the Met in 1992, having dreamed of being a police officer since his teens. Rising quickly through the ranks he worked across the capital, experiencing first-hand the enormous satisfaction as well as the endless trauma that a life in blue can bring. There were remarkable, career-defining moments, but for every case with a happy ending, there were others that ended in desperate sadness. In early 2013, John suffered a major breakdown and consequent battle depression. After a career spent racing to be the first at the scene of crimes and catastrophes, he found himself in pieces.
