La Muerte De Un Federal
A powerful drug organization seeks to expand its operations by securing a private transportation route through corrupt government connections. Their primary target is Agent Rodolfo Campos, a respected official whose approval would guarantee safe passage for their shipments across multiple territories. To influence him, a woman working within the criminal network approaches Agent Ignacio Portillo — Rodolfo’s close friend — hoping he can persuade him to cooperate in exchange for a large sum of money. As pressure mounts and loyalties are tested, a critical mistake triggers a chain of events that leads to Rodolfo’s betrayal. In a world where friendship and corruption collide, one wrong move exposes hidden agendas and unleashes consequences that no one anticipated.
