Michele Leonhart was born to be an investigator. It started when someone stole her Huffy bicycle and she created the Little Girls Investigation Club to find it. She was so determined to get into law enforcement after graduating college that she applied to over fifty departments. Everyone rejected her, except Baltimore. After a chance encounter at a gas station with a drug dealer she set her sights on becoming a DEA agent.Working undercover in Minnesota, the target was a trafficker connected to Pablo Escobar. The operation was going smoothly until she ran into him at the Federal building. Michele continued to make big cases, including bringing down the world's largest cocaine paste producer. Her leadership resulted in a presidential appointment to become the first female DEA agent to head the agency, serving both President George W. Bush and Barack Obama.

It was a typical Friday afternoon for DEA Special Agent Kevin Stephens. He and his partner Murph were part of the cover team for a 17 kilo buy-bust of cocaine that was supposed to go down the day before. Everybody was ready to take the traffickers down, do the paperwork and take the weekend off. The informant who set up the deal had a long-term relationship with DEA, and had successfully arranged dozens of prior buys. It was all going according to plan...until it didn’t. The traffickers were planning to rip the undercovers off, and came armed. Shots were fired, Kevin was severely injured, and the informant was killed. This is the first time ever Kevin and Murph discuss that afternoon in Hialeah, Florida. - Donate at paypal.me/gameofcrimes or go to paypal.com and use our email: [email protected] Go to GameOfCrimesPodcast.com for more info- Follow us on...twitter.com/gameofcrimesfacebook.com/gameofcrimespodcastinstagram.com/gameofcrimespodcast
