Starting at the tail end of the wild cowboy days of 1980's Miami, undercover FBI agent Martin Suarez didn’t just infiltrate a cartel...he nearly rose to the top. As a smuggler, he helped move a billion dollars worth of product while rising through the ranks of the Medellin cartel before moving into the secretive world of elite money launderers for cocaine kingpins.
For years, he lived a double life inside the most dangerous syndicates, surviving hits, betrayals, and near-death missions. And he did it all longer than any agent ever had before...or since. He's the narco world's Donnie Brasco.
Journalist Ian Frisch, who co-wrote Suarez's story with him in the newly released Inside the Cartel, joins us for this episode.
