Biography[]
Background[]
Jury and John Teller served together in the same platoon in Vietnam, "My dad saved his ass in Tang-Nam he owes the Tellers a chit" said Jax, and remained close friends afterwards.
Season 1[]
"Patch Over"[]
Jury and his club learn that the Sons of Anarchy Motorcycle Club, Redwood Original are visiting them. Jury meets Jackson "Jax" Teller and Robert "Bobby Elvis" Munson as they arrive. He treats Bobby to a hooker whom he fancies.
Jax drinks at the bar with Jury, John Teller, Jax's father was a good friend of Jury from back in Vietnam. Jury states that he is in a rough spot as the Mayans Motorcycle Club are hassling him for taxes and if he relents, he is disrespecting SAMCRO. Jax tells Jury that they need assistance holding some guns for them, Jury agrees and asks if Jax will talk to Clarence "Clay" Morrow, President of SAMCRO about getting the Mayans to back off the tribe. Jax informs him that Clay is on his way because he is proposing a patch over. Jury at first seems very hesitant, knowing it will cause some of his club to drop out, not wanting to become Sons. Jury however, is in agreement of the idea.
Back inside the Tribe's clubhouse, the rest of SAMCRO have arrived. Clay gives a speech inducting the Tribe in as the Sons of Anarchy, Indian Hills charter. Clay says that every man must decide if they want to patch over or not, the Tribe must talk amongst themselves.
A few Tribe members storm out of the clubhouse, throwing their kuttes on the floor. The Sons head back inside to see that Jury has convinced the majority of his club to patch over.
The following morning Clay receives a call from Jax, telling him that Mayans are on their way to Indian Hills, the club arm up and prepare to fight.
The club are able to hold off the Mayans without any real casualties.
Season 6[]
At Three Point Lodge, Jury is one of the first to greet MC and Jax after checking in.
Season 7[]
Jax Teller and the Sons recruit Jury and the Indian Hills charter to help ambush a meet with Henry Lin's men. Later that night, he returns to Gib and Renny's house to find them both murdered (as Jax and the Sons set them up as the people responsible for the ambush of the meeting as Lin wanted the perpetrators found by noon the next day). While embracing Gibby's body, Jury takes notice of a sawn-off shotgun lying on the floor and realizes the Sons were behind the murders as he had previously loaded the same shotgun in the back of their van. ("Toil and Till")
Jax and Jury then get into a heated argument in the episode "Separation of Crows" about J.T, resulting in Jury taking aim at Jax, the latter ending him with a shot to the face. During the heated argument before Jury is shot by Jax he mentions that shortly before John Teller's death, he was the only person John trusted.
In "Suits of Woe", it is revealed that Jury was indeed telling the truth about not being the rat and that the person really ratting out SAMCRO to the Chinese was corrupt Stockton PD officer Charles Barosky (as revealed by Lin while he was being interrogated in prison by Juice Ortiz).
In "Red Rose", Jax has a meeting with the other SOA charter presidents and admits that he was wrong about Jury being the rat and that it was really Barosky. He also admits he lied about Jury confessing but maintains his story that he acted in self-defense as Jury reached for his gun after being punched by Jax.
Murders Committed[]
- 2 unnamed Lin Triad members - Shot ("Toil and Till")
