Paul Vernon

Paul Vernon was a patrol officer for DC Metropolitan Police Department during Day 10.

During Day 10, Vernon and his partner, Officer Tim Bates, spotted Eric Carter and attempted to arrest him for vagrancy. Although Vernon roughed Carter up a little, Bates talked him out of it. As they were about to arrest him, Carter overpowered them and took their sidearms. He asked them to get to their police station's evidence room for 2 millions confiscated on the drug bust. He straps bombs to them and pretends to arrest him for vagrancy.

As Vernon and Bates drove Carter to the police station and pretend to take him to process without arousing suspicion, their boss, Lieutenant Daniels, asked to see Vernon about the suspect he previously roughed up. Vernon told him this has to wait since Carter has him hostage and Carter taunts Daniels. Daniels then decided to have Vernon and Bates take him to processing. Once they were cleared and the cameras are blocked, Vernon and Bates led him to the evidence locker where the drug money is. As they stood by as Carter found the money, the alarms sound and Carter was discovered in the evidence locker. .
