==General Description ==
John Riggs is a Deputy for the Senora Desert Sheriff's Office, Badge #950.
He was a founding member of the Neighbourhood Watch - a group of civilians that patrol the streets of Los Santos aiming to clean the streets of criminal activity. Riggs decided to form the Neighborhood Watch with his friend Ernest Kaminski after his house was burgled, and the police in Riggs' eyes put little effort in to catch the culprits.
==History ==
One day when on patrol with the Neighbourhood Watch, Riggs was approached by a Randy Bullet in a car, who offered to sell him "The Devil's Lettuce". Riggs was hesitant to buy drugs, but eventually decided to haggle and accept the offer, and take the drugs to the police as evidence. When he turned in the drugs to the police, it was revealed that it was in fact actual lettuce. Randy overheard Riggs talking to the police, took Riggs hostage, beat him up under a bridge, and left him needing to be rescued by a helicopter. After landing at the hospital he then proceeded to projectile vomit over a doctor. Riggs decided to investigate the Mirror Park Tavern after hearing about the HOA being a similar organisation to The Watch that was based there. He accidentally got hired as a bartender there in the process, but was fired a few weeks later for not showing up.
Riggs volunteered at the Mission Row parking lot for the Los Santos Police Department, before the role was made an official position. Because of this, he (along with Kaminski) claims to be the founding father of the PD Booth guards. His duties involved sitting in a booth ensuring there was no trespassing on police grounds, and keeping a log of all police officers and which vehicles they left/entered the premises in. During downtime in the booth, he played solitaire on the computer, gaining "Grand Master" status. He was later hired to work there officially when the parking attendants role was created at MRPD, until he was hired as a cadet in the Los Santos Police Department.
After completing his cadet phase in the LSPD, he was given special dispensation to partner with Ernest Kaminski on patrol as a solo-cadet by Assistant Chief of Police Domenic Toretti.
Riggs (along with friend Ernest Kaminski) took a break from active duty for a few months in late 2021/early 2022, after they both discovered internet pornography and it took them "a few months to download it all".
On March 29th 2022, Riggs was promoted to full officer in a no-thrills LSPD meeting taking place in a small briefing room at Bob Smith PD (along with friend Ernest Kaminski). During this meeting it was outed by Tracy Martell that they were secretly considering transferring to the Senora Desert Sheriff's Office. They accused the Chief of Police Sam Baas of not even knowing their names, and then proceeded to sneak out of the room together whilst the other officers in the room argued among themselves. Around a week later after much deliberation Riggs transferred to the SDSO with Kaminski, following their idol Toretti who first hired them at the LSPD. Martell was extremely disappointed with their "betrayal" and told them not to contact her any more for help/advice.
==Breakup with Kaminski==
After making slight amends with Martell in the proceeding weeks, professional SDSO gaslighter Peach Chee convinced Martell that Riggs had feelings toward her. Martell invited Riggs over to her house whilst wearing sexy lingerie, and asked him if this was true, but he denied this. Later during a bench trial, Riggs was forced under oath to admit that he was in fact attracted to Martell. Martell then absorbed Riggs into her harem, giving him keys to her house. After a few weeks, Riggs told Kaminski that he would not be around their shared apartment for a while as he was "house sitting" for his ex-wife while she was away on vacation. Later he told Kaminski that he was in a relationship with a woman he had met called "Silver Duct" - a name he made up on the spot whilst looking around the room he was standing in for inspiration (the MRPD carpool).
A couple of days later, after Kaminski had been arrested for speeding and evading whilst off-duty. It was decided that Riggs and Kaminski should sit down and talk things through at their apartment, with mediation from Lance Malton and Peach (later being joined by Martell). During the meeting, it got heated and Kaminski accused Riggs of holding him back, and said he was made a full officer too soon. He also accused Riggs of having "poon brain" and not spending enough time with him any more. Riggs confessed that he had not been house sitting for his ex-wife, that "Silver Duct" was a made up woman, and he was in fact having casual sex with a certain Captain of the LSPD (Martell). Kaminski accused Martell of gas-lighting him, as she had earlier complained that Kaminski kept accusing her of having sex with Riggs. This made Martell furious, saying it was none of his business. Wanting to hurt him, she told Kaminski that it was Riggs who had in fact cheated with Kaminski's then-wife years ago, which lead to their divorce. Riggs admitted that this was true, and was then told to pack his belongings and was kicked out of the apartment by Kaminski. After news spread about the affair, Burger Shot named their new menu item after him - "The Riggs filled eclair".
