This series tells the true stories of America's most thrilling and spectacular manhunts. Each one is a race to catch vicious gangsters on the run, drug barons so rich they seem beyond justice and arms dealers who are willing to sell to America's worst enemies Pablo Escobar the King of Cocaine, El Chapo recently escaped from prison, Griselda Blanco the Black Widow, and Viktor Bout the Merchant of Death. The heroes are dedicated, patriotic special agents and fearless, incorruptible cops. Each episode will have all the drive and immersion of a Hollywood thriller but these are real stories with real people. That authenticity will be brought home vividly by the maximum use of first person testimony from the people directly involved - the agents, the policemen, the intelligence analysts and the eyewitnesses. These are people who have crept in undercover, faced down murderers and chased their quarry over hostile terrain for weeks on end.
This film was first broadcast: 2015

Frequently Asked Questions
What are three lessons you can learn about history?
There are numerous examples throughout history that demonstrate how we can learn and improve from our mistakes. These lessons can be applied to the challenges of business today and turned into opportunities for growth.
The past teaches us that there is always another way to do things. You will always find someone who thinks outside of the box and takes chances that make them stand out.
History has shown us that often it is the underdogs that succeed. When you feel overwhelmed, stuck or lost, think back to the times when they won.
You can learn from the past, and bring those lessons into the future. Learn from the mistakes and successes of others.
These lessons can help you improve the success rate.
Who was the first to say that those who don’t learn from history are ignorant?
Although we wish for a world where everyone learned from history, learning from our mistakes is more important than living in that ideal world.
The best way to learn how to do something correctly is to actually experience it.
The biggest mistake you can make is not ensuring that it goes right the first and only time.
As long you keep making adjustments, you'll eventually see the reason you made them.
It is possible to discover that you could have done things better the first time around.
However, that doesn't mean you should not try again. That's a sign that you have learned a lot.
Although you might not be able make every mistake, it is possible to minimize them. This is the difference between success, and failure.
Acknowledging your mistakes is the first step. Look at your mistakes objectively, and then ask yourself: "What lessons have I learned?"
If you're honest with yourself, you'll realize that your mistakes are just lessons. These are opportunities to learn.
And that's exactly what happened to Thomas Edison. He failed many other times before he inventing the lightbulb.
He didn't let his failures discourage him. Instead, he used each one as an opportunity to improve his design.
He developed the most well-known form of lighting we have today.
So, if you fail, don't get discouraged. Learn from your mistakes. Take advantage of them.
And then, you can try again.
Is it possible to learn from the past and not repeat past mistakes?
History repeats itself because we keep making the same mistakes again and again. We make mistakes and fail to learn. We don't change. We become complacent. We settle to mediocrity.
History repeats itself because we believe the same old stories. Our culture has conditioned us to believe there is an immutable law and a fixed truth. They are immutable laws and truths that we can't change.
This makes it difficult to think critically. The ability to question authority. From challenging assumptions. When we do not question, we stagnate. If we don't grow we stagnate. When we stagnate we make the same mistakes again and again.
But history isn't the same because we continue making the same mistakes. We don't learn from our mistakes, and we keep repeating the same mistakes over and over.
By changing your outlook on the world and understanding that there is no set way, you can break the cycle. Nothing is fixed. All things are subject to constant change.
The key to breaking the cycle is to embrace uncertainty. Accepting that things may go wrong. Accept that failure is possible. Accept that failure is possible.
Accept that you may not reach your goals. Acceptance is a part of learning, but it's important to continue improving.
It's impossible to move forward if you hold onto the past. You'll never move forward if you cling to the idea that there are fixed truths.
You can't control your destiny. If you want progress, you need to let go of control.
What are some lessons learned from history?
We have three lessons from history. First, to truly change the world, one must take responsibility for it. It is important to make sure that people are prepared for change when you try to improve their lives. The third thing you must do to improve the future is to first change how people live.
The first lesson is that there are two ways to change the world. One is fighting for it, the other is creating it. It is easy to lose sight of why you started a fight in the first place when you are focusing on winning.
Although you cannot control the reactions of people to your ideas, you can control how they are presented. If you try to convince someone, you will fail. If you try to convince someone to do something, you will fail.
People had an idea, and they decided to take action. This is how most great movements started. So whether you're creating change or reacting to it, the best way to make your mark is to follow these three rules: Be clear about what you want, be honest about where you come from, and be brave enough to go where nobody else has gone before.
The second lesson we learn is that everyone has the option to choose. We have two options: we can wait for life to happen to you or we can make it happen. We must choose the kind of life that we want. Are we content to wait for someone else's approval to let us live? Or, do we want control of our destiny and take control?
I think we're living a golden time right now. This is a time of great opportunity, which creates a lot excitement. People feel empowered to make their own futures and that's very exciting.
It can also cause problems. It is essential to determine what you want, and how you can get it.
Let's suppose you want to buy your first house. You could sit back and hope someone gives you a gift certificate to Home Depot. You could also ask yourself "What would you love to do?" Then, look for a job that lets you do it. Final step: Apply for financing.
Now, suppose you were to travel the world. Now, you might wonder "Where would I like to go?" Then, you'd start saving money, researching countries online, talking to friends, etc. The final step is to book a flight.
Now, let's say you didn't know what you wanted. You would most likely do one of these things. This is how you can increase your chances for getting what you want. Although it may sound silly, it is effective.
The third lesson is that you can always improve your future no matter what happens. The reason is simple. Our choices impact who we become and who we are.
The trick to success is to look back at history and learn from their mistakes and successes.
If you don't believe you have something to offer the world, you're already behind. You must believe you are better than you think you are.
You can start by learning what you already know. Start small, and work your way up. Take stock of the lessons you've learned in your entire life. What have your failures been? What are you proud of? What have you done to overcome obstacles?
Last but not least, remember that no one can stop you from reaching your full potential. No matter how much anyone tells, you can achieve anything you set your mind.
Benjamin Franklin wrote, "Nothing works unless you do."
