Gangland Undercover S1-2
Convicted of dealing drugs, Charles Falco was given a choice: serve 20 years in jail, or go undercover with one of America’s most notorious biker gangs. For the next three years, he led a dangerous life infiltrating the Vagos Gang, pretending to be a loyal member but, in fact, gathering evidence of their illegal activities. As he becomes more deeply entrenched in the gang, suspicions begin to mount that he might not be who he seems.
By Season 2, Falco has escaped the Vagos gang. Offered a life in witness protection, he instead chose to infiltrate not one but two more gangs.
The series is based on a true story, and there’s plenty of fascinating detail about outlaw biker counter-culture that’s woven into the truly terrifying tales of Falco’s time undercover. Gangland Undercover stars Damon Runyan (Star Trek: Discovery) as Falco.
