Daniel Mendoza was a button man for the Sinaloa Cartel responsible for the Highrise Fire.

History[]

He worked for the Sinaloa Cartel with his family, acting as a soldier. Unlike his father, Carlos, he wanted to go up in the ranks and even murdered his father's boss, Edgar Torres, ultimately causing an arson in a high-rise apartment complex, an arson that killed others, including Pat Halstead, the father of Chicago PD Detective Jay Halstead and Chicago Med Doctor Will Halstead. He even infiltrated Gaffney Chicago Medical Center in order to kill a witness he didn't finish off in the hit.

He was later tracked down and shot and killed by Detective Halstead in a underground overpass, the death avenging all the victims Daniel had murdered including Pat Halstead.
