Investigation Discovery’s Operation Undercover shifts its focus to Montgomery County, Alabama, in its second episode, “Meth Storm,” airing Tuesday, November 19. The series continues its look at the often-unseen efforts of law enforcement to combat the drug trade.
This week, viewers get a front-row seat to a multi-pronged operation aimed at disrupting meth trafficking in the region. The episode tracks undercover officers as they target suspected dealers, some of whom may be connected to more extensive criminal enterprises. This offers a look at the intricate web of connections within the drug trade and the challenges faced by those trying to dismantle it.
“Meth Storm” isn’t all stakeouts and hushed conversations, though. The episode will deliver some heart-pounding moments, particularly a high-speed chase as one suspect tries to outrun the law. This provides a visceral sense of the dangers involved in undercover work and the split-second decisions officers must make.
Guiding viewers through the operation is former undercover agent Lou Valoze, offering his expertise and insights into the strategies, risks, and psychology of undercover policing. Valoze’s commentary is usually pretty informative too.
Operation Undercover: Montgomery, County, Alabama airs Tuesdays at 10:00 PM on Investigation Discovery.
