Apple has shared the official trailer for 'Cowboy Cartel,' a four-part documentary series featuring the story of a rookie FBI agent who cracked the case of one of Mexico's most ruthless cartels, Los Zetas, and the multimillion-dollar money laundering operation they ran through the heart of the American Quarter Horse racing industry.
"Cowboy Cartel" is the unbelievable true story of unlikely hero Scott Lawson, a rookie FBI agent from rural Tennessee whose investigation took down the Treviño brothers, the leaders of Los Zetas, one of the most powerful cartels in Mexico. While the Treviños terrorized thousands in their pursuit of power, money and influence, Lawson risked his life on a hunch: tracking their brother's racehorse transactions in the United States, infiltrating the deadly cartel and uncovering their international money laundering operations. "Cowboy Cartel" features first-time interviews with FBI agent Lawson, who broke the case; IRS agent Steve Pennington; Irving police officers Steve Junker, Brian Schutt and Kim Williams; Assistant United States Attorney Doug Gardner; Pulitzer Prize-winning New York Times journalist Ginger Thompson; and Joe Tone, the author of "Bones: Brothers, Horses, Cartels, and the Borderland Dream."
The series is produced for Apple TV+ by Breaklight Pictures, with executive producers Dan Johnstone ("Hillsong: A Megachurch Exposed," "American Cartel"), Castor Fernandez ("The All-American Cuban Comet," "Brothers in Exile"), Eric Newman ("Narcos," "Griselda"), Steve Michaels ("American Cartel") and Jodi Flynn ("American Cartel"). Johnstone and Fernandez direct the series. Tone serves as consulting producer.
The series will premiere globally on August 2, 2024 on Apple TV+.
