Our guest on Radioactivity Wednesday was former US Customs agent Robert Mazur, who for five years worked undercover investigating drug dealers and bankers who were laundering money. He was part of a Tampa-based money laundering sting in the late 80s  that infilitrated Pablo Escobar’s laundering organization and helped take down the Bank of Credit and Commerce International, . His work as an undercover agent is the subject of a new film called The Infiltrator which stars Brian Cranston as agent Mazur.
