Summary
"What is it like to work undercover?" You’re a sheepdog in wolf’s clothing, running with the pack, and John Madinger ran with the wolves for almost two decades. Now he shares his story to give you a unique look at American crime and the "War on Drugs" from the perspective of both cops and criminals. John joins TCT today to talk about his experiences in the field and his unique perspectives as to how the world's attitudes towards drugs have changed since he was a narcotics agent!
John Madinger’s law enforcement career spanned 35 years as a narcotics investigator and a U.S. Treasury agent, where he is an advisor on money laundering and terrorism financing.
