Mobster Detective

A new gangster takes over the crime of a major city, maybe new york. He realizes that every time there is a famous murderer who isn't caught, the police put more pressure on crime and it hurts his business. He sends his best general to become a detective and catch criminals that make the news paper. His general can use any technique, intimidation, torture, whatever but has to end up finding out who the criminal is and leading the police to the criminal in a way that no one, not police or criminal, knows his role in what happened. Every week we see the story of the crime, and watch the general and the police go back and forth till the general gives to the police the path to catching the criminal. Because of this, the police force in this town is getting great press and the focus is not on crime but other issues when the election comes up.
