Miguel Galindo (Danny Pino), the head of the cartel, is developed in a way that gives his character an interesting moral ambiguity. While Miguel will probably never win the Nobel Peace Prize, he’s so much more than he first lets on. Sure, he’ll torture and kill whomever he needs to, but the writers smartly give the vicious drug dealer a life outside of the business that includes a loving family, which helps to humanize a man that could easily be called a monster.
