My Life Undercover For The FBI: Marc Ruskin

Imagine being paid to lie? Imagine having to live a lie for most of your professional career? If you forget your lies, or get them mixed up, you could be killed. This was the life that Marc Ruskin lived as a secret undercover FBI agent for almost 20 years.
The FBI generally has about 100 UC agents working full-time in the field. In the 1990s and 2000s, Marc Ruskin had the most diverse, and notorious, case list of all, and the broadest experience within the bureaucracy, including overseas. He worked ops targeting public corruption, corporate fraud, Wall Street scams, narcotics trafficking, La Cosa Nostra, counterfeiting―and gritty street-level scams and schemes.
Sometimes working three or four cases simultaneously, Ruskin switched identities by the day: Each morning he had to walk out the door with the correct ID, clothes, accessories and frame of mind for that day’s mission. Meet Alex Perez, Alejandro Marconi, and Sal Morelli, just a few of Ruskin’s undercover personas.
But what about the psychology of doing undercover work? Did Marc ever feel guilty about turning in his subjects, after getting to know them quite well over a period of time? Does he ever think he provoked them to carry out more crime in order to build his case? Do elements of these characters he had to act and live out stay with him? Listen to find out more.

Absolutely fascinating. As a teen, I loved watching crime films, on TV, with my father. We would always try to identify the crook. I often got it right. One evening, as we were having dinner, I announced that I wanted to be an undercover agent with the FBI. My mother replied "sweetheart, we are Irish, I don't think they are recruiting here". Weeks later I announced that I wanted to be a detective. My parents were encouraging. One night, I stepped on a piece of broken glass and cut my foot. Blood was streaming out and I nearly fainted. As mom was dressing it she said "I really don't think you should become a Detective because you always become weak when you see blood". She was right. I persued studies in finance and IT but still love true crime solving.

Just listened to Marc on Crossroads with the Epcoh Times - he did a great job and I was intrigued so here I am. Thank you for the introduction to The Holy Land as a side note!

Is Epoch Times as Qanon as their commercials. They're, certainly, extremely right wing with their politics based on the commercials The ads come off as propaganda.

Just came across to your channel and subscribed at the same time. May I ask what's the latest w/ Banni. Is there still a possibility that he can be adopted by your family? How is he now? Hope you can give us an update. Thank you.
