These are great episodes. Awesome narrative, you get Jim Kallstrom with every episode. There is just a sense of consistency, quality and entertainment. Plus, the price is just right!
I love watching the FBI files especially thanks to Jim Kallstrom, you will be truely missed. And not to forget the narrator as well love his narratives
I really wonder why he went through with such a risky role. Confidential informants don't do this type of work because they're saints -- usually they have serious charges that they're trying to avoid, or at least get a plea deal, by risking their asses.
Yep he really put his life at risk. If that was me I would have asked for a new identity, my own private island in the Caribbean and never to be asked to carry out any sting job ever again.
I just realized they uploaded the wrong episode from the preview last week, this episode is not related to the Las Vegas MGM Grand Hotel robbery. It's all good though, still enjoyed the episode as always.
If you keep on letting murderers go on parole then of course people will never help you cause they know these murderers will come out on parole and hurt em. Such stupid laws
Inmates can cost thirty thousand dollars a year, more than it cost to attend college. The whole point of parole is to give convicts an incentive to work towards improvement and save resources, that would be spent on incarcerating someone who has been reformed.
@@Monkman646 If the government has to spend so much on criminals then how is it a damn "prison" ? Prisons should be where the criminals should feel like they are bein harshly punished. Murderers should be executed right away and there should be real harsh punishments for all the criminals. It ain't a damn hotel, it's a prison
@Shannon Hunter look sister, there is no second chance for a person who killed someone for nothing and made there entire family live in extreme heartbreak OR a person who ra.ped a girl or a boy. They all deserve death penalty
And I thought I'd seen every FBI files episode. There's hope😎. The ex-cop had to be on the other side of the law to have hardcore, brazen, violent criminals trust in him. I'm sure that's why he didn't get more acclaim. Must have had his slate wiped clean.He was the key to the whole takedown.
The take down should have ended a little different. The SWAT team should have apprehended the CI as well, NOT walked with him like they were pals. Then in front of Charlie, the FBI should have thanked Charlie's brother Joey for his cooperation and took him away alone in a separate vehicle. Then make all attempts to prevent the brothers from making contact with each other. This would have set in confusion in the mind of Charlie and for a while at least kept the CI from being outed as such, giving the FBI and the CI and his family time to start a new life in the protection program. Because you know this Charlie and his crew will be looking for the CI forever.
I kind of suspect that a lawyer might have some things to say about your idea. In any case, they locked the gang up forever... I hope though that they gave the guy a new identity.
I hope it was just a coincidence! After all....who takes a car on a robbery, if there is the SLIGHTEST CHANCE that it MAY NOT START???? (By a show of "Thumbs up)☝🏿💫
@@mccown12 You're obviously against gay people. So, are the other 39 people that liked my comment also Gay!!?? You're just jealous that the narrator has a better voice than you do, otherwise, you won't be so worked up...hahaha
I totally agree. And, to think, I wouldn't have noticed it, had you not mentioned it. Bafoolery in the comment section is something I've come to expect! But, this is truly a breath of fresh air!!!!!!
Give that dude some credit.. he is living in the roughest city in America but used his own automatic rifle to fight off 3 armed robbers trying to break down his door. Unbelievable
Watching from kenya This was a great move by the SWAT team ... I held my breath when they pursued the robbers cos I thought they would shoot the informant
How have they not made this into a movie yet? It's totally written itself already... Throw in a Latin star as the undercover cop and you got a new movie
I rarely comment but today lemme leave this one here so that when anyone likes it I come back to watch and sample this GREATNESS!! Ardent follower since Day 1.
Because you know...being an informant automatically qualifies you for a job at the FBI...screw those education, experience, and background check standards! Smh
What happend to the informant? Did he get a job with law enforcement, put in witness protection, get paid? He took an incredible risk. One thing I've learned from watching these shows is, that if you ever go to law enforcement with knowledge of someone who committed a crime, they will try to put you in the middle, they will even try to find a crime you can be accused of to blackmail you into doing their dirty work. So be careful.
They didn't give a shit about "the cooperator". He could of gotten killed during the takedown for all they cared as long as they got their guy. Dumb guy thought he could get his cop job back by doing this. Nope, sorry but here's an FBI keychain LOL.
As James Reeves said, if you go too a gunstore in America and they have an AK there is an 80 - something percent chance that they are going to try too sell you some american made dogshit, however if you get a real AK, man, one of the best possible rifles to defend yourself. The first guy took that advice and we can all be glad that he did.
@@Jolenesmart1980 yes the gas from firing the cartridge expands and is channelled into a gas tube, where in the case of an AK is a piston, which is a key part in a firearm's repeating ability
And to ensure reliable operation of such a firearm when firing different bullets, some of which may create more gas than others you may need to adjust the amount of space the gas from the cartridge has to fill so that the piston goes back at more or less the same speed.
Loooovvveee the feeling when you finally find an episode you haven’t seen yet, and it’s an awesome preview!!! 😂😂. Plus, it’s pouring rain outside! Let me settle in!
As soon as he said a ar15 could go through a vest I laughed. The AR-15 is chambered in 223 most police wear level 3 vests. A 223 will not pierce a lvl 3 vest a 223 is significantly less powerful than most hunting rifles
Almost all rifle bullets, including .223 Remington (the AR-15's standard round) will go through most police vests (soft body armor). Police rarely wear hard body armor (level 3 or 4) The cop's comment is indeed silly because there's not much special about the AR in this case - no soft body armor will stop rifle bullets reliably. The .223 is actually better than most rifle rounds at penetrating level 3 body armor because of its very high velocity compared to larger bullets. You need level 4 to reliably stop .223 rounds.
@@sbreheny multiple articles (as well as my vest) says it will stop up to a 7.62 nato (308) 3 will stop a 223 tho I have came across a few articles that say it won't the majority say it will
The first officer saying “we’ll it’s not uncommon to hear gunfire in Camden” just so matter of fact is astounding. I love this country, it’s wild. It’s like a teenager who just graduated high school, anything and everything will happen. Oh not to mention the guy they’re after is on parole for manslaughter and gun violations.
Great episode. Took a lot of courage for that CI to do what he did. That's a VERY thin line to navigate and he did a wonderful job. I think that Tam looks like John Candy if he were still with us today. On to the next one.
I spoke too soon ~ robbing a bank, your getaway vehicle not starting, AND almost getting busted because of a warrant for not paying your child support is peak poor cubed.
I hv sooooooo much respect for that FBI informant who risked his life to make sure the Rodriguez brothers are nailed for life.i wonder if the FBI didn't give him a job!!!!?
They still have not fixed it and I dug deep to find someone else noticing it 😂 like I'm probably 60 comments deep in and you're the first I've seen mentioning the misspelling
