Biography[]
Past[]
As mentioned by Officer Adam Ruzek, he has a notorious reputation and a record consisting of drug dealing, manslaughter, and assault. At some point, he and fellow criminals the Gary Brothers approach Evan Lormer, a Public Defender and showed him there was more to be gained from a life of crime. Lormer was convinced and agreed to aid them in exchange for some of the cut. With him on their side, they were able to evade prison time because of him falsifying documents to get them sentenced to probation or community service, while Lormer stayed under the radar as a drug kingpin.
Blue acted as the street captain/enforcer and ensured the drugs got distributed and dealt with anyone who caught wind of their activities. Blue soon had the drugs manufactured in a nightclub to avoid detection, while bribing the owner to keep quiet. Several of those people who they gave drugs to died, but he didn't care.
"Called In Dead"[]
Blue was called by the club manager to be told that bikers stole the drugs, so he gathered some men to get revenge and met the manager at a garage. As they were about to enter, they realize it was a sting set up by CPD Intelligence who quickly surround them, and Blue takes the manager captive. He enters a standoff with the cops but relents and allows himself to be arrested.
When brought in, he refused to cooperate not even giving his real name or confirm the drugs were his, despite the evidence against him. He also made it clear to the CPD that he is not a snitch that will flip, before smugly ordering Officer Ruzek and Det. Jay Halstead to bring him some food but Halstead told him to get comfy because he was looking at hard time. Seeing he won't talk, Sgt. Hank Voight ordered for a wiretap to put be in his phone and run him through the system to learn his real name.
Blue remained in the cage, just as he witnessed Jesse Seeley, one of the Gary brothers being hauled in after a failed attempt to blackmail Det. Olinsky. Seeing the criminals were connected, Voight has the cuffed Blue hauled off to holding. Soon Intelligence ran his fingerprints and learned his real name Carl Johnson, as well as his history and it was noted he along with the Gary brothers should have been put in prison years ago. They soon uncovered falsified documents, signed by Lormer and find him with the incriminating evidence, stripping the gangsters of their protection.
He is then imprisoned for life, along with his conspirators.
