At the same time, officer Rick Scalo, is charged with the shooting death of a young latino boy at the US/Mexican border and Eduardo is assigned to defend him. A virtually impossible case to win becomes even more challenging when Scalo, using his border patrol connections, is able to extort Eduardo into winning the case in exchange for his family's safe border passage.
