概要
The wrong shipment turned a year-long undercover sting into a surreal trap: agents found 272 crates with 19,000 pounds of marijuana worth over $21 million-none of it what was promised. How did a meticulously built identity and a single misdelivered container upend an operation that had taken months to earn trust?
In this episode, we follow Detective Richard Eppolito’s undercover work as "Tony Romano," the months of cultivation inside New York’s drug networks, and the simultaneous February 3, 1993, raids that unfolded across a warehouse and six locations. What went wrong between the broker’s promise and the cartel’s delivery?
