Description: In 1970, the United States passed the Organized Crime Control Act, which established the Witness Security Program or WITSEC.  Since being enacted, WITSEC has had thousands of witnesses and family members enter the program, none of whom, to date, have been killed under their protection. The program is a key weapon in the fight against organized crime and has been a subject of public fascination. Learn about the Witness Security Program, why it exists, and its impact on the American justice system on this Episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.
