What does it take to track a human being who doesn't want to be found? Lenny DePaul is the undisputed master of the manhunt, with an uncanny ability to capture just about anyone, no matter how far they run or how deep they hide.
As the former Commander of the U.S. Marshals’ premier fugitive task force, Lenny oversaw 350 elite investigators across 90 agencies with a single mission: bringing the "worst of the worst" to justice. From protecting President Reagan at the White House to leading the charge in the most infamous manhunts in American history, Lenny’s career is a masterclass in survival, strategy, and the raw animal instincts required to outsmart the world's most violent predators. In this episode, the star of A&E’s Manhunters reveals the high-stakes reality of the hunt and the chilling psychological games played by society's most dangerous fugitives.
