A Nation for Thieves
“Kleptocracy” (noun): “rule by thieves” — a form of corruption that allows the ruling class to accumulate great wealth and power while neglecting the mass of citizens.FBI special agent and all round badass Debra LaPrevotte singlehandedly created the FBI’s first kleptocracy department, exposing leaders whose corruption has fueled war crimes and other atrocities, including the current war in Ukraine. Hosted by actor Justin Shenkarow, “A Nation for Thieves” delves into how Debra recovered over $1 billion dollars of dirty money from the world’s most corrupt leaders. She takes us on her international treasure hunt, retrieving priceless items of art, cars, yachts, and suitcases full of cash.New episodes come out every Tuesday. Hosted on Acast.

I am a teenager, and have always found corruption interesting, but I haven’t had the time to sit down and learn about it. I also didn’t think about corruption connected to money. This podcast was SUPER informative, and it’s crazy what goes on in the world that no one knows about. I listened to this podcast whenever I could, and I was always blown away. Learning about the FBI academy and Debra’s experiences were super cool. Overall I loved the information that this podcast gave that you wouldn’t hear anywhere else. Who knew that there were prosecuted leaders living peacefully on laundered money in the US. I totally recommend this podcast, and hope that Justin and Debra do a second series. There is so much more you can talk about that’s related to kleptocrats.
Very informative!
