He is a black man and sometimes being a cop and being Black seem
to be in contradiction to one another. He feels sympathy for some
people and understands how discrimination has shaped their lives.
Still, he doesn't believe that excuses them from being involved
in a life of crime.
He met Officer Angelo while working in Narcotics downtown. He took
her under wing and started to spend more time with her on a case
than his partner. This caused some friction between Detective Avon
and his partner, Detective Storm but neither one of them could deny
Officer Angelo had a "talent" for knowing where drug bust would
occur. His partner, Detective Storm, even suggested Officer Angelo
might have a criminal stake in the tips she was giving the department.
The drug bust always involved "rivals" of her father and never any
of his operations. Although Officer Angelo's father has never been
officially named as a suspect in any illegal drug operation. The
night of the Drug Bust Shooting, Drew and his partner were with
Officer Angelo. This bust did involve the suspected operations of
Officer Angelo's father.
In the ambush, Detective Avon was wounded and Detective Storm was
mortally wounded. She died four days afterwards from the injuries
he sustained. Shortly afterwards Officer Angelo was promoted to
Detective and assigned to the 7th with Detective Avon as her partner.
