What is El Juicio about?
When the son of a powerful businessman is accused of sexually abusing a female classmate, two families' lives change for good. One father seeks justice for his daughter while the other uses his power and every resource he has to defend his son. What starts as a fight between two families grows into a battle where every decision carries consequences, and both fathers have to face how far they'd go to protect their kids.
ViX says the series is inspired by real-life stories and explores the different faces of justice, power and family loyalty, with dilemmas that have no easy answers.
