The untitled David Rambo project centers on an enterprising doctor who breaks the boundaries of medicine and crime-solving by creating a team of physicians, detectives and a forensic psychologist at Brooklyn’s busiest hospital who work together to heal victims and obtain justice. The project is inspired by Dr. Astrid Heger, who created the Violence Intervention Program at Los Angeles County/USC Medical Center and is considered a pre-eminent expert in the field of child sexual abuse and sexual assault. Rambo and Jinks executive produce.
