Life Pre-Warehouse
As the first born child in a military/ police family Jacob was always good at looking at a crime scene and picking out what was wrong with it. If it wasn't for how long it takes to wait for the results he would have made a great crime scene investigator, however he'd rather get the job done and the criminal locked away. If he knows that someone is guilty he has a hard time not just reacting instead of waiting for evidence or warrants. Understanding this he relies on a partner to help keep him patient. Moving up the ranks from beat cop to a detective he had the most closed cases in his department. Another thing that Jake has always been proud of is his ancestors which he could go back to Luiz Vaz de Torres, a Spaniard explorer. He met Mrs. Fredrick during a case when he was looking for a budding serial killer, hoping to stop the man before he became a true one (three or more victims). For some reason the serial killer just kept escaping and he knew something was out of place but couldn't put his finger on it. It ended up being that the serial killer was shooting his victims with Ian Fleming's Pistol making himself invisible and able to escape. Breaking into the man's home, after gathering information on him, he ran into Artie who was trying to get the pistol before the man returned. Even though it was evidence Jake allowed Artie to take the gun but not replace it as a replacement might let the guy get away with it all. Collecting evidence illegally Jake did what needed to be done to close the case and lock the murderer away.
