Police, They Said It Could Not Be Done, Undercover With the Crips in Texas. For years, many in law enforcement believed it was impossible. Crossing racial, cultural, and gang boundaries at the deepest level of a violent criminal organization was something most said simply could not be done. But one Texas police officer proved them all wrong. Available for free on the Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast website, also on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Youtube and most major Podcast networks. Tegan Broadwater, a veteran of the Fort Worth Police Department, spent nearly two years embedded in one of the most dangerous Crips gangs operating in Fort Worth, Texas. What began as skepticism, and even laughter from colleagues, turned into one of the most successful undercover investigations the department had ever seen.

I took that personally.” Supporting articles about this and much more from Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast in platforms like Medium , Blogspot and Linkedin . A Mission Few Would Attempt Undercover work, also known as a covert or clandestine operation, requires an officer to assume a false identity, gain trust, and quietly gather intelligence without ever revealing who they truly are. Unlike plainclothes policing, undercover operations demand total immersion, deception, and constant vigilance. Broadwater’s assignment went even further. “There’s undercover, and then there’s deep cover,” he explained. “Deep cover means you live a separate life. You don’t visit it, you become it.” Police, They Said It Could Not Be Done, Undercover With the Crips in Texas.

His experience existed somewhere between traditional undercover work and deep cover. Pretending to be a high-end cocaine dealer, Broadwater infiltrated a violent Crips set responsible for drug trafficking, prostitution, and brutal violence that terrorized innocent residents. The risk was absolute. “If you’re discovered, there’s no arrest,” he said. “There’s no backup. There’s just consequences.” Two Years Inside the Fishbowl What followed was a high-stakes, real-life cat-and-mouse game between Broadwater and M.D., a calculated drug lord with a street-level MBA and sharp instincts. Broadwater earned trust, navigated betrayal, and lived daily with the psychological strain of maintaining his cover. “The stress doesn’t turn off,” he said. “You’re always acting, always watching, always measuring your words. Eventually, that pressure catches up to you.” Police, They Said It Could Not Be Done, Undercover With the Crips in Texas.

Over the course of the operation, Broadwater helped dismantle a major Crips network, leading to the arrest of 51 gang members. But the cost was high. The emotional toll of living among violent criminals, forming complex relationships, and witnessing generational cycles of crime ultimately led him to retire early from the Fort Worth Police Department. “I didn’t leave because I was weak,” Broadwater said. “I left because the work changes you. And I knew it was time to choose my family, my health, and my future.” From the Streets to the Page Broadwater documented his experience in his book, Life in the Fishbowl – The Harrowing True Story of One Cop Who Took Down 51 of the Nation’s Most Notorious Crips. The book is both an action-packed account of undercover policing and a deeply reflective examination of America’s War on Drugs, gang culture, and more.
