Ben Shepherd
Age: 31 Occupation: Arcadia City Police Detective

Profile:
Ben is a seasoned veteran of the ACPD. He started law enforcement as a beat-cop in New Jersey, though after a series of quick promotions brought him to Arcadia City to as senior detective.

His cynical and sometimes cold demeanor hides a strong sense of justice and duty. In contrast to others in the force, Ben chooses to not carry a gun. This is not because of an accident in the past that Internal Affairs is on his case for, but due to his firm belief that crimes can be solved peacefully with great detective work as opposed to bullets.

He lives alone with Sabi, his Basset Hound.

Hobbies:
Jogging and working out, playing (and winning at) chess and listening to old Jazz records.

Sailing, boxing, playing basketball, 70s Cop shows and going to the movies.
