About this listen

 Before company B of the Texas Rangers executed 15 Mexican men and boys in Porvenir, Texas, they asked each one, “are you Chico Cano?”. But who was Chico Cano? It depends who you ask. If you ask the Texas rangers, he was a deranged Mexican bandit, who led a band of 100 Mexicans and stole cattle and killed indiscriminately along the US-Mexico border. But the truth is more complicated than that. In this episode, Cristina tells Carmen about Chico Cano.
