True Crime

Will Mellor returns with a new season of “Cops Gone Bad,” exposing the disturbing cases of law enforcement officers who abuse their power. This week’s premiere focuses on Adam Provan, a police officer whose actions betrayed the very principles he swore to uphold.

In 2010, Provan, lying about his age, took 16-year-old Lauren Taylor on a date that ended in a horrific sexual assault. The episode details the events of that night and the subsequent investigation, revealing how Provan used his position of authority to manipulate and exploit a vulnerable young woman.
