JD Pollack
is a reporter through and through. He has a
curious nature and goes after the story despite who it
might affect.
When JD
first came aboard he worked for the Boston Monitor, a
gossip magazine/newspaper. He was fired from the
Boston Monitor in the episode Judgement Day.
JD claims it was Jordan's fault he got fired.
Soon after he published an article with Flank Online
Magazine, and continued to work as a freelance reporter.
He’s from Australia originally. JD is very
arrogant, stubborn and sure of himself. He doesn't
play by the rules. He'll do what he must to get a
story. JD doesn't take life (or himself)
to seriously--he enjoys it...doesn't worry about what
may come.
JD showed
interested in Jordan from the moment they first met. He
however sensed the territorial issues with Jordan and
Woody and was careful to not step on toes until he
received the okay from Woody to pursue Jordan.
From that point on JD seemed to take pleasure in ‘word
battles’ with Woody, which always left Jordan in the
middle of them.
Jordan and
JD eventually hook up after Enlightenment. They
seem to be a happy couple. Relaxed around each
other. His need for the story gotten
in-between him and Jordan a few times. It started
to caused some strain to their relationship in Road
Kill and continued to be an issue in A Man in
Blue when JD accused Woody of planting evidence in
an article he wrote.
JD gets tossed
in jail for refusing to reveal information about a
source in Code of Ethics. He has it out with
Jordan in jail accusing her of sabotaging there
relationship. He had been planning on asking her
to marry him. (He showed Nigel the ring he bought
in Loves Me Not). Jordan and JD eventually
break up at the end of this episode.
JD moves on to
Washington DC. However he returns to Boston in
Don't Leave Me This Way after he received a call
from Jordan in the previous episode (Mace vs. Scalpel).
While JD returns to see Jordan he also has ulterior
motives...as always a story is driving his actions.
JD sneaks into the morgue and steal Jordan's access card
taking pictures of some old autopsy cases. He then
leaves the memory card, where he stored the files, on
Jordan's key chain.
Early in the
episode (Don't Leave Me This Way) JD is murdered.
It's made to look like Jordan killed him. However
the clues he's left Jordan helps her figure out what he
was working on. Jordan works on solving the
case/proving the story JD was working on, to justify
JD's death.
JD died on May
7th 2006.
JD stands for
John Douglas. We learn this fact in Code of
Ethics.
JD Pollack
is played by the actor Charles Mesure.
