List of NYPD Blue Characters - Internal Affairs

Internal Affairs

• Sgt. Jerry Martens—Originally showed up as a one-dimensional "Rat Squad" leader who gleefully ruined Det. Kelly's career, but later emerged as a fair investigator who refused to destroy Bobby's career when given the chance. Even Andy, who hated him for years, finally acknowledged that Martens was a good cop in a hated part of the department. His first name was not revealed until Season 12.
• Captain Pat Fraker—A sleazy Internal Affairs Captain who used his position to harass Lieutenant Tony Rodriguez. Fraker got stuck in Internal Affairs after Rodriguez exposed Frakers' corrupt partner from Narcotics, as it was the only unit he could join without losing his job. Fraker would later attempt to sabotage Rodriguez's career and that of the rest of the 15th until Sipowicz intervened and threatened to tell his wife about the affair he was having with a female detective. Fraker would then try to assassinate Rodriguez, but Rita Ortiz shot him down before he could fire a second (killing) shot and Fraker was left permanently disabled. However, he was acquitted of all charges by attorney James Sinclair who had most notably clashed with Detective Sipowicz, and this led to Rodriguez first being passed up for promotion and later deciding to retire from the force and take a lucrative private security job. Fraker then left Internal Affairs and ended up working in a sleazy bar, where he had an angry confrontation with Andy after Andy was menaced by a stalker (who turned out to be a different rotten ex-cop).
