Barry Seal flew cocaine for the Medellín cartel and personally met Pablo Escobar and the Ochoa brothers. Then he became a secret informant for both the DEA and the CIA, flying covert missions into Nicaragua that President Reagan later used as evidence on national television. This documentary breaks down Barry Seal's double life, the Iran-Contra connection at Mena, Arkansas, his testimony against the Medellín cartel's leadership, and the judge's decision that left him without protection in his final weeks.

Hollywood later turned his story into a movie, but the real events go far beyond what made it to the screen. From cartel wealth to federal courtrooms to a parking lot in Baton Rouge, this is the true story behind one of the strangest double lives in American law enforcement history.
