The character is described as Mickey’s tough and capable deputy and longtime partner, who has a very contrasting style of law enforcement to Mickey, causing some occasional tension between the two. Lauria joins Baccarin, as well as recently cast series regulars Christopher Gorham and Michele Weaver, and W. Earl Brown.
