SMUGGLER: Barry Seal

Barry Seal's legacy lives on. Twenty-three years after his murder, he is still the subject of controversy and debate. Seal was an extraordinary pilot and a multi-millionaire drug smuggler. When his fortunes turned, he became a top undercover operative and a key witness for the government. Rumors and speculation link him to the Bay of Pigs, the JFK and Martin Luther King assassinations, and CIA-backed drug and gun smuggling.
