About this listen

 This Friday, March 21, 2025, Info the Fire Episode #45 will feature a real legend,. Billy Queen, raised in North Carolina and son of an ATF Agent, served as a Special Forces soldier in the US Army during the Vietnam War. After leaving the military, he served as a police officer in NC for six years, then became an agent with the U.S. Border Patrol where he served for 2 years before joining the ATF. Early operations included infiltrating the Aryan Nation and the KKK. Then in early 1998, as part of an operation to infiltrate motorcycle gangs, he joined the San Fernando Valley chapter of the Mongols Motorcycle Club as Billy St. John, and he became a full patch member where he served for 28 months.
Billy was incredibly successful in his undercover operation within the ranks of bikers, and after receiving his full patch member status, elevated to hold the position of secretary/treasurer, and then chapter vice-president. This led to a series of raids that were carried out on May 19, 2000 to include almost 700 lawmen in four states, which led to the arrest and indictment of 54 gang members. The ATF later described Queen’s time undercover as “its most successful “biker gang” penetration.
He has received multiple awards, and following his retirement, Billy wrote a book called Under and Alone: The True Story of the Undercover Agent who Infiltrated America’s Most Violent Outlaw Motorcycle Gang. The book became a bestseller upon its release in 2005.
It has been said, that if there was a Mt. Rushmore of undercover agents, Billy would certainly be one of the legends on the mountain.
