Benji was an outraged civilian who started killing cops after Violet Roosevelt and Tanya Kramer were killed due to a delayed 911 call.

Season 1[]

After Tanya Kramer and Violet Roosevelt were killed, Twanya told her friends Benji and Sonny and they decided to do something about it. When they found out that Tanya and Violet had died because the police took more than an hour to answer the 911 call, they decided to avenge the deaths by murdering police officers.

Benji and his friends Twanya and Sonny took position atop an apartment building and ambushed police officers Rudy and Paula after making a bogus 911 call, shortly before taking shots at Danny and Julien. They escaped when the officers returned fired and repeated the same procedure the next day, slaughtering Patrick and Chris after making yet another false 911 call.

Benji and Twanya were later located inside an abandoned building full of homeless people and drug addicts. As Vic quietly snuck behind Benji and was about to arrest him, Twanya lurked in the shadows, ready to shoot. David Aceveda shouted out Vic's name and shot Twanya in the back twice just as she was about to kill Vic. Benji made a reach for his gun again, but Vic stopped him just in time and he was taken into custody.
