### Status

Alive

Sgt. Sam Hanson is a police officer in the New Los Angeles Metropolitan Police, and serves as Lt. Jacqueline Jones' partner. He was assigned to assist the recommissioned Bloodhound unit as a driver and crewman.

## History

Not much is known about Sam Hanson, since he barely speaks and only does so around his closest friends and family. What is known is that he joined the police force around twenty years ago at the age of twenty two. He was a young and more energetic officer back then according to Chief Powell. Around ten or so years ago he was partnered with **Lt. Jacqueline Jones**, and while at first he might have found the young officer annoying, he's come to respect and appreciate her as a friend and as a partner.

It is known that he's married with Dr. Yukimaru Matsunaga, a minor mechanical physicist and robotics on one of the science teams of Dawson & Bucannon Industrial. He has two daughters he and his wife have adopted, Marie Yukimaru-Hanson and Chidori Yukimaru-Hanson.

When Chief **Richard Powell** asked for volunteers to help in a new attempt to revive the 'Bloodhounds', he was pretty much pressured into joining by his partner, and while he does not mind having a higher pay, he sure does not like the idea of working with inmates.

## Personality

Due to the fact that Hanson barely speaks and is rarely seen without his uniform. Nobody really knows what sort of expressions he might have and thus gives the image of a serious and cold person. When he does speak it often in a low and quiet tone that, combined with his radio static, make it nearly incomprehensible.

## Relations

### Jacqueline Jones

Hanson has a lot of respect for Jackie. She's one of the few people he has invited over to his apartment to meet his family and she's also one of the even fewer people that has seen him without his entire gear on.

### Yukimaru Matsunaga, Marie and Chidori

Hanson deeply loves his family. He wants to send his daughters to the best schools out there despite the fact he does not earn a lot as police officer. While he does not openly talk about it with people, he adores his wife and often tries to buy her gifts.

### Richard Powell

The chief and Hanson are good friends, and share a mutual respect for each other.

## Equipment

As a police officer, Hanson is equipped with the typical equipment of a police officer. Cuffs, radio, taser, metal extendable baton, pistol, etc.

His standard issue pistol is the Armatech P915. It uses typical 9mm ammunition, and the magazines carry up to 15 rounds. While part of VTOL crew or when driving the APC that carries Charlie Team, he attaches a frame to his standard issue handgun, which becomes a Armatech P930 Personal Defense Weapon with an extended magazine that carries up to 30 rounds.

## Trivia

* Not many know how he looks like but Jackie describes him as 'painfully boring' appearance-wise.

* While on patrol-car duty, he is often listening to new wave retro music.

* Due to the fact he rarely removes his gear, very few people have seen him eating or drinking. Many assume he is actually a robot or a clayman.
