Jack Pierson

Jack Pierson is a pawnbroker in New York City who is known for having a "No questions asked" Policy when buying goods most of which have been stolen or are counterfeit. This policy has led him to many arrests over the years after his many shops have been visited by members of the New York City Police Department or the Remnant. He is often able to avoid jail time due to his lawyer Jerry Kleinert arguing that prosecution cases against him were weak and that he never asked where the items came from when he bought them. This has caused a great deal of frustration for both Bryan Khayman and Nick Franklin with Franklin later warning both Tommy Doyle and Jamal Wilkins about Pierson and Kleinert.

In 2018, Pierson rented a warehouse and hired a man named Heinrich to manage the flow of goods in and out of the warehouse. Heinrich became a person of interest in a murder being investigated by Franklin and Wilkins and attempted to flee when confronted by the two detectives. After recovering a number of stolen items in Heinrich's van, Wilkins mentioned a list of charges that Heinrich would be facing including accessory to murder. Heinrich quickly named Pierson as his boss and Doyle sent Wilkins to execute warrants on Pierson's shop as Pierson had never seen Wilkins before and might not associate the younger detective with Khayman. Wilkins' search of the shop recovered not only the items from the murder being investigated, but also items taken from another murder. Pierson quickly claimed that Wilkins was another pawn in Khayman's long-running vendetta against him which didn't faze Wilkins. Despite Pierson's protests and Kleinert's objections, both Wilkins and Doyle seemed confident in charging Pierson as an accessory to multiple murders. While in NYPD custody, word of Pierson's latest arrest reach Michael Myers who sent Stormtroopers to retrieve Pierson and transport him down to Federal Plaza for further interrogation by the Remnant. As Pierson has never come up in further investigations, it is likely that Kleinert was unable to keep him out of jail this time.

In 2031 Pierson's son Donald who also went into the pawnbroker industry was arrested by Remnant Majors Christopher Felth and Jason Oliver in Philadelphia after being caught trying to sell Chris an. At the time of his arrest, Donald was also under investigation by the for fencing stolen goods.
