Over several months, the investigative team secured exclusive access to American law enforcement officials focused on apprehending these criminals. The narrative uncovers how authorities exposed the scheme and attempted to capture the operation's leader. Furthermore, interviews with a former Russian spy, whose identity remains concealed, provide a new perspective on this complex story. This spy spent his career obtaining similar data from Moscow, adding depth to the documentary's findings. Viewers can access 'Putin's Traitor' on CNBC's website and YouTube.
