Backstory: Jim Russel is sometimes accused of living in the past. He is a fierce proponent of the Second Amendment, card-carrying member of the Republican Party, and all around hard case. He is a rangy 6'2, raw-boned and weather-beaten with a fierce bushy walrus of a mustache that was out of regulation about two weeks ago. He transferred into the Police Dept from the Park Ranger service, muttering something about 'hippies' and 'politicians.' After serving his time, he continued into SWAT as a long-gunman. The position suits him, as he is exceptionally patient, but has some problems in the heat of things making snap decisions.


There are stories that he tried to pay his taxes one time using rifle and pistol ammunition of various calibers with a value equal to what he owed. Completely coincidentally he has come up in front of the review board once or twice, but so far has managed to talk his way out of anything more serious than administrative review. Additionally, he was involved with a rescue effort when a couple spelunkers (cave-explorers) were trapped, and came away from it with an intense dislike of closed-in spaces.


He has been married twice, the first marriage was right out of high school and more an impulsive decision than carefully thought out. He divorced after the third year and stayed single for a lengthy period of time before meeting someone he thought he could stick with. Mary Russel is as much an avid hunter as her husband, and independent enough that the sometimes lengthy periods of time he is away are not a serious source of contention.
