== Spoilers ==
Nelson was charged with monitoring Orange Gang activities in his region. In doing so he hatched a plan to capture Hrothgar Kray. He noticed that Hrothgar tended to show up in person to crucify traitors and enemies only when the party had a teenage daughter. Nelson then devised a trap by infiltrating the Orange Gang and acting sloppily enough to get caught. He calculated the timing of Hrothgar's expedition to kill and crucify him down to the minute, and planned for his fellow officers to arrive at exactly that time so as not to allow Kray any possible warning. He would have been exactly right on target had Alex Deramus, the last man in Hrothgar's entourage, not been too drugged to attend.
Nelson was thus murdered by Kray with a shot to the heart, along with June who was shot in the head. Violet was about to suffer the same fate but when presented an opportunity to fight back, she did so, killing Kray and his men. The Police, including Officer Lochroch, lied to Violet about her father's plan so as not to alert her to the fact he was using her as bait, and concealed from her the fact that Nelson's body went missing shortly after his death.
After his death, Nelson was resurrected by Maggie and trained as a Geki.
== Behind the Scenes ==
Nelson is named after Lord Horatio Nelson. Officer Lochroch's name is a play on Keystone, the name of a group of comedic inept cops.
