Devil’s Kitchen – I’d come to Devil’s Kitchen wanting to know the dark underbelly of firefighting in America. Because there’s such an ingrained sense of the men and women who perform this job being unfailingly good people. But of course, firefighters are human. And humans as a race aren’t unfailingly good. I was looking for stories of bad people and bad behaviour that hides behind the badge, and I found what I was looking for.
