Steve Navarro

Steve Navarro was the station chief of the CIA's station in West London, England during Day 9. His staff included Mariana, Kate Morgan, Jordan Reed and Erik Ritter.

Early life and career
Navarro was friends with Adam Morgan, Kate's husband, and was deceived just as Kate was during the time Adam sold classified intelligence to China. Navarro himself was married sometime before Day 9.

Four years after Day 8, following the discovery of actionable intelligence purportedly from agents in Prague regarding the fugitive Jack Bauer being in London, the CIA authorized Navarro to lead the operation to capture and detain Bauer. The highly-classified mission order was leaked and posted online by the hacker group Open Cell.

Day 9
Navarro interrogated Jack briefly after he was captured. When he breaks out, Navarro continues to work the case and try to track him and temporarily reinstates Kate.

In 4:00pm-5:00pm, Navarro accepted a phone call revealing he had framed Adam Morgan as a traitor in an effort to cover up his own illegal activities.

Jordan Reed, a CIA intelligence analyst began digging into data files about Adam Morgan. Navarro called his co-conspirator, Open Cell founder Adrian Cross, and warned him of the ordeal. Navarro sent Reed on a bogus mission to find a boat, where Reed was shot in the shoulder by a Hitman, but survived. After Reed told Navarro to send someone to pick him up because someone was trying to kill him, Navarro told the hitman where Reed was located. This plan backfired, however, as Reed managed to shoot the hitman to death (although Reed was also wounded with a knife).
