O'Brien is a LAPD officer who in 1984 first encountered Kyle Reese fleeing from the T-1000. O'Brien and his partner Carver immediately arrest Kyle on suspicion for mugging pants from a hobo and stealing a gun from the T-1000 (Whom the police thought was one of them). His partner was killed by a T-1000 and O'Brien starts shooting at T-1000, who immediately recovers from the bullet shootings. Kyle orders O'Brien to release him from handcuffs, which O'Brien at first refuses but releases him when he decides that allowing a "convict" to be killed is unlawful since Kyle angrily asks "What part of "kills humans" is confusing to you?". Kyle and O'Brien then run out of any options to defend against the T-1000 before Sarah crashed into the store and took off with Kyle. Traumatized by this event, O'Brien wanted to make sure that he understood the entire incident.
Later on in 2017, due to his age he no longer works as a street officer but as a detective. He meets Kyle and Sarah again and the police are aiming to arrest them just like O'Brien originally aimed to arrest Kyle. However, his low rank in the police system makes his voice unheard and ignored all the time by his superiors, and one officer calls him "Optimus Prime", apparently to mock O'Brien's frequent struggle to earn leadership that O'Brien requests to further understand his 1984 encounter with Skynet's time travel plots.
O'Brien then started begging the authorities that he works with to release Kyle and Sarah, knowing that the two are aware of a serious danger (Skynet a.k.a. Genisys) and are working to stop it from killing off people. Once the T-3000 started becoming the real problem for authorities, he went to go release Kyle and Sarah and had them escape with the Guardian T-800 on a helicopter.
He was able to pull himself up and presumably ran to safety.
