In His Own Words: Bernie Madoff

Ten years after Bernie Madoff's arrest, In Their Own Words: Bernie Madoff presents the story of the largest financial fraud in history, as told by those who were there: victims, employees, family members, FBI agents, and Madoff himself. This program pairs archival news footage, rare photographs and exclusive audio recordings with interpretive re-enactments to tell the story of Madoff's massive $65 billion Ponzi scheme... In Their Own Words created by Emmy and Peabody Award-winner Tom Jennings is a ground-breaking documentary series in which people involved with extraordinary events tell their stories through recordings made at the time. The stories are told moment by moment, in first person, in real time. No narrator. No talking heads. In Their Own Words is the closest thing to being an eyewitness, thanks to first-hand storytelling with no filters. (National Geographic)
