El Equipo FX aims raise trust in Mexican and U S police
The TV series El Equipo on Univision modeled after CSI promotes a tough, trusted federal police image with four investigators who rescue hostages and nab suspects. Officials say cooperation with police, including a Black Hawk helicopter, prompts some critics to call it propaganda. Critics cite corruption, brutality issues, and a surge in federal police numbers under Calderon, while noting longstanding reform challenges.
