Overview[]
Biography[]
An orphan of unknown parents, Jack spent much of his childhood bouncing from one foster home to the next. Due to this he grew into a bitter teenager who would constantly get into trouble which would result in him getting removed from more foster homes. However, that changed when he was placed with the Logans in the late 80s. The Logans refused to give up on Jack despite repeated attempts to push them over the edge. In 1989 he attempted to steal his foster father's car to impress his prom date. However, his foster father caught him before he made it out of the driveway and had him spend a night in jail. When he came home later, he told Jack that no son of his was going to be a juvenile delinquent. When Jack angrily reminded him that he wasn't his father, the Logans' response was to adopt Jack. After finally being adopted, Jack changed for the better and would later become a respected law enforcement officer.
