John O’Neill was an FBI special agent whose work was largely unrecognized and disregarded by his peers until it was too late. Described as a “maverick” due to his refusal to accept the status quo, O’Neill warned of al Qaeda’s growing power and influence in the months leading up to September 11th, 2001.
In the PBS documentary Frontline, O’Neill’s efforts are detailed through interviews with colleagues, family members, and former government officials. The film paints a vivid picture of O’Neill’s tireless work over several years – from uncovering terrorist cells in New York City to tracking Osama bin Laden across multiple continents – but unfortunately he was often met with resistance from those who just couldn’t see the potential danger.
