Their mission: to form the pioneering all-Latin homicide unit that would forever reshape the city's landscape.

Known as "The Chicano Squad" by the Houston media, this band of extraordinary men took on the challenge with unwavering dedication.

Produced by the acclaimed Jupiter Entertainment ("Snapped") and Bender Brown Productions ("Seven Seconds"), and guided by the direction of Mario Diaz ("Right to Offend: The Black Comedy Revolution"), "The Chicano Squad" promises an immersive exploration of resilience, community, and the remarkable impact of dedicated individuals on the fabric of a city.
