The New Squad — Season 1, Episode 12: Tell Me He's Not Dead / He's One of the Gang

Episode synopsis

Days have passed, and there's no sign of Salvatore Sciacca. At the Spaccanapoli police station, everyone is busy searching, but there's no clue. Only one thing is certain: the Sicilian superintendent was kidnapped by the wanted mafia boss Gaetano Sansone, who is nowhere to be found. The trial of the hawkish Alberto Lenzi, suspended from duty pending sentencing, continues: a new witness claims to have seen the officer shoot an unarmed football fan. Vitale assembles the hawkish team to investigate the life of the star witness, with no criminal record.

About The New Squad

In the heart of Naples, the Spaccanapoli Police Station is established to combat crime in the most affected areas. It is led by Deputy Commissioner Paola Ricci, a law-abiding officer who often clashes with Sergio Vitale, the impulsive and direct leader of the "Falchi" (Falchi). The Squad must confront crime but also its own vulnerabilities.
