Chaos erupted inside the impenetrable Walls Unit prison in Huntsville during the scorching Texas summer of July 1974. Frederico “Fred” Gomez Carrasco, a notorious drug lord often compared to Pablo Escobar of today, orchestrated a takeover that would become the longest prison siege in U.S. history. Carrasco, known as "The Mexican Connection," smuggled guns into the prison and, along with two accomplices, took teachers and librarians hostage. For eleven harrowing days, they threatened a massacre if their demands were not met, keeping the nation on edge.

This is the story of the deadly Huntsville siege, a tale that continues to resonate nearly fifty years later.
