* RuralGangsters: While Teresa and her various enemies often fight their gang wars in urban locales like Miami or New Orleans, her supplier [[TheDreaded El Santo]] runs his operation way out in the middle of nowhere in Bolivia. He is likewise an insane yet scarily competent Cult Leader, his members preparing his drugs and acting as his enforcers, with him viewing his Cocaine to be a sacrament and Teresa as the moyocoyotzin chosen to spread it.

Meanwhile [[spoiler:Devin Finch and his crew are revealed to be CIA Agents, and he doesn't hesitate to commit amoral acts to get his way, making him appear no different that the criminals he targets, which for most of the the show was El Santo.]]

* AntiVillain: Epifanio ultimately becomes this by the time his story is fleshed out. [[spoiler:As a teenager he saw his mother and father get murdered and hung from a tree for not playing the Cartel leader his money on time. He forms a crew and fights to hold on to his family farm that the Cartels tries to take from him by force. He genuinely loves his wife Camila and the show makes it clear that their marriage problems were mostly created by her and her pride. He tries to go legit once he has the means to do so, but is stopped by is wife who refuses to give up the criminal empire she helped built, despite not being a criminal at all in the beginning of their relationship. And he gives up his life trying to kill Teresa, because he saw how his wife would never let her become the new queen of the south. These things ultimately makes him a sympathetic character and not the ruthless drug lord the show initially makes him appear to be.]]

* TheSociopath: Given the subject matter of the show, you can point out a number of examples, but the one who sticks out the most is the military leader Cortez. You can read the Complete Monster entry on the other wiki page for a more in depth example. But to break it down, he has superficial charm, he lacks empathy, he is a compulsive lair, a ManipulativeBastard, he acts impulsively [[spoiler:(and its this trait that led to his downfall in Season 3), and he kills without hesitation if a person gets in his way, no matter who that person is or what he thinks of them at the time. What really makes him stick out, is that even some of the most ruthless criminals in the show like El Santo have some redeeming qualities about them. Cortez has none.]]

* YouAreWhatYouHate: Sheriff Jed Mayo is of South American decent, but hates his own kind because he blames their actions for white people's racism towards them. Of course, he is no better if not worse, since he takes money from the cartels or any criminal organization [[{{Hypocrite}} who will pay him more]], and at the same time tortures and kills his own kind claiming he is bringing justice to Phoenix.
