Biography

Nina Moreno is a Puerto Rican-American. At the age of 16, she married her boyfriend Luis and gave birth to a daughter, Melissa. She gave the girl up for adoption after Luis abandoned her. Moreno is a street-smart young woman, but as the newest member of the force, she's got a lot to prove to her superiors, her colleagues and herself. She's torn between her sensitivity as a woman and the harsh realities of her job. She later dated and married Eddie Torres, but was widowed soon after following his murder. Her mother is a sergeant with the NYPD.
