James
is Jordan’s half brother. He is six years older than
Jordan. Their mother had an affair with another police
officer—Detective Malden. He was a young rookie at the
time. He’s become police chief. James killed Malden (he
claimed self-defense) in 2003 (Season 2: Pandora’s Trunk).
James
was taken in by the Horton family. They lived in rather
direr straight (close to poverty—though there are two
episodes that contradict themselves on this matter). James
remembers the arguments his parents used to have—and
believed he was the cause of all them, because he wasn’t
really their son.
James’s
fingerprint was found at the scene of Jordan’s mother’s
death, which caused Jordan to wonder what her brother had to
do with their mother’s death. He claims he never killed
her. He went there that day to talk with her. She warned
him that someone was out to get him and her and he needed to
be careful.
Max has
kept tabs on James since he gave him away.
James was played by the actor Michael T Weiss.
