by

Are you wondering if Dante Torres, portrayed by Benjamin Levy Aguilar, might be leaving Chicago PD? He first appeared in Season 9, Episode 18, titled “New Guard.” Prior to joining the CPD Intelligence Unit as a permanent member, he worked under Detective Jay Halstead. Lately, his storyline has taken some unexpected turns that could potentially jeopardize his career, leading fans to speculate about his future on Chicago PD. Here’s why fans think this might be happening.

Could Benjamin Levy Aguilar’s Dante Torres be leaving Chicago PD?

There’s been more chatter about Aguilar (Dante Torres) leaving Chicago P.D., fueled by his recent absence and a plotline suggesting his job may be at risk. But for now, it hasn’t been officially confirmed that he’s gone.

Previously, Torres missed Season 12’s Episode 17, causing some worry about his location. But it seemed that his character used their vacation days and subsequently reappeared in subsequent episodes.

Viewers were put at ease when the question of Officer Cook regarding Torres’ absence was addressed by Burgess. Cook inquired from Burgess about where Torres had been. To this, Burgess casually mentioned, “He took a few days off as vacation.” When asked why he was absent, he stated that he wasn’t aware of the reason and neither had Torres shared it with him.

Apart from not mentioning his exit, Aguilar’s situation seems comparable to when actors occasionally step away from their regular television schedule. There have been whispers about his departure resurfacing following the airing of Season 12 Episode 21, titled “Open Casket (1).

In the most recent installment, the plot revolved around Torres forming a close bond with a confidential informant who eventually transitioned into a drug dealer. Tragically, he was murdered. Detective Burgess and the squad attempted to clean up the mess left behind by Torres, but Reid uncovered the truth. By the finale, it appeared that Torres had been arrested for misconduct. The storyline has sparked discussions among fans about whether this could signal Torres’ departure from the series, although no official confirmation of his exit has been announced yet, leaving us to only guess at this point.
