DESCRIPTION:
(from National Geographic's press release, October 2023) In a transformative and revolutionary decade that reshaped America, the FBI is faced with some of the greatest challenges in its history. From the Watergate scandal and the bureau's own internal corruption to a shocking escalation in domestic terror, the birth of alarming cults and the proliferation of serial killers, each new threat drives the FBI to adapt or die in a country undergoing a rapid and profound evolution. Featuring in-depth access to the agents at the heart of each case, INSIDE THE FBI: THE '70s examines the successes and failures of these investigations as the organization fights new and emerging threats at every turn. With a nation reeling from Vietnam and Civil Rights clashes, the FBI confronts a new generation that refuses to adhere to the rules. Utilizing untapped revelatory FBI archive and unique eyewitness testimony from the FBI agents and their adversaries, this series is not only a white-knuckle ride through the criminal cases that defined America, it also exposes an American society in turmoil. INSIDE THE FBI explores how this once proud law enforcement agency had to rebuild itself and its reputation under the onslaught of relentless crimes - the truths they uncover have shocking legacies that still reverberate throughout the U.S. to this day.
