## Biography

### Early life

Bentley Adame was born the eldest of three in a household that barely could support when it was just him but that didn't stop his parents from having two more children. Never having been one to get along with his parents, or their choices, he often strayed away from them to his own little world. It didn't help that he was a trouble maker with anger issues. Throughout most of his school life, he was in and out of detention. Often times he caused plenty of grievances for his parents and even worse for his younger siblings. The only time he was at his best was when his parents dragged them all to church.

From a young age, he had been a god fearing man. One that prayed frequently and was sure to show up to church every Sunday. It didn't stop him from flying off the rail. In High School, he joined the wrestling team where he ended up getting noticed by other places but it was his Junior Year that he decided he wanted to be an officer. Straight out of high school, he trained for the police academy to which he ended up going through and becoming an officer.

While on shift during his twenty-eighth birthday, he had gotten a call about a woman who was in distress. Arriving on scene as it had bene a regular for him was when he met Elisa Conrad. A mentally unstable woman who had past issues with law enforcement but Bentley was good at handling these things. He calmed her down and helped her figure out the situation to which she ended with giving him her number.

It wasn't until a year later when he would give in and give her a call after another failed relationship. Shooting into the dark on if it was the same number, he was lucky that she had picked up. The two talked all night and scheduled a date for the following weekend. From there, they were together ever since. Things were exactly how he had imagined a marriage should be.

They married when he turned thirty and would return home to the news of his sister killing herself while they were on honeymoon. This kicked up a drinking problem and the anger issues that Bentley had kept under wraps. It wasn't bad at first with mainly just yelling until she got pregnant, and subsequently lost, their first child. That was when the abuse really started happening.

A few years after the loss though, they were graced with a baby boy in which they named Jon. He was born as healthy as a horse with the same rich brown eyes of his mother. Two years later, she was pregnant again with a daughter this time who they would name Melinda. Life worked well for a man who worshiped diligently as he still went to church every Sunday. He also helped at the local school in coaching kids on his off days for wrestling which was something his captain worked with him on.

He worked with him until one night when his captain found him drinking on the job. Booze on his breath and anger in his eyes, he was let go from the police department. Sent home to wallow in this anger hadn't been a good idea. Storming home to where his wife, his 7 year old daughter, and 9 year old son were left him with nowhere else to redirect his anger.

Dragging his wife out of bed to the main room where he began beating her. Fist hitting skin as she went unconscious and until the life left her body. After that he had turned his anger towards his children. Eyes first locking on his daughter as he went into a fury on her. This went on until a shot rang out and hit him in the back. The rest of the night had been a blur of life ending despair.

In secret, he was patched up and sent to prison for the murder of his wife as well as the child abuse. A life sentence was what he was ordered with the possibility of parole by the advisement of an unknown figure. Within jail had been difficult as most people didn't like wife beaters or ex-cops. He joined a gang to keep safe and kept his head down.

### Season 1

During the first season, Bentley Adame was presumed dead by his family while in reality he was serving a life sentence in jail. Most of his time was spent keeping his head down and an eye on the news. Watching as the town where his brother played in frequently had news reports of a missing boy in which they interviewed his very own children.

### Season 2

After serving only sixteen years of his life sentence, he was released on good behavior with the backing of his ex-captain who had suffered feeling guilty for all that had transpired. With no where to go, and no money in his name, he went to the one family member who was still alive. That family member was his younger brother, Julius Adame. While sitting on the couch, he had the reunion that he had been yearning for with his children.

Both had went into their own manic states to which they stormed off. Julius insisted that he help his brother find a place but he would not stay here. He would get a job immediately and only contact him when something was needed. Otherwise, he wanted nothing to do with his older brother.
