Jess LaCroix[edit]
Jess LaCroix (portrayed by Julian McMahon) was the supervisory special agent and team leader of the Fugitive Task Force.[1]
LaCroix was the widower of deceased US Army Intelligence officer Angelyne Skye LaCroix and the father of Natalia "Tali" Skye LaCroix as well as the brother-in-law of FBI Special Agent Clinton Skye. He was also a profiler which he used to get into the mindset of a criminal the team was chasing and determine their patterns of behavior.
In the FBI Season 1/FBI: Most Wanted backdoor pilot episode, "Most Wanted", it was revealed that Jess worked alongside Jubal Valentine, the Assistant Special in Charge of the FBI's New York field office on the Haynes Spree Killer case and in the FBI Season 2/FBI: Most Wanted Season 1 crossover episode, "American Dreams", it was also revealed that the two men worked together some time in the past.
In the FBI: Most Wanted Season 3 episode, "Shattered", during the hunt for a violent fugitive, Jess was shot in the neck and, despite Barnes and Ortiz' attempts to treat him, died off-screen from his wounds, devastating the team and his family. He is later replaced by FBI Special Agent Remy Scott who becomes the Fugitive Task Force's new leader.
Kenny Crosby[edit]
Kenny Crosby (portrayed by Kellan Lutz) is a special agent and former member of the Fugitive Task Force.
He can be a little tough and aggressive when provoked or when he disagrees with disrespectful or improper attitudes. Crosby served in the 12th infantry while in the army, and he struggles with anger management. In the season 1 episode "Invisible", he became extremely upset when he participated in the questioning of a veteran who was dealing other veterans addictive medications to help with PTSD and anger issues. He yelled in the interrogation that he has lost five comrades to suicide. To help him with his anger management, Hana gave Crosby breathing exercises that helped calm him.
Crosby is shown to have a good relationship with Hana, presumably because they are the youngest team members and the two often exchange banter. In the season one episode "Grudge" Kenny was the first to notice Hana's abnormal behavior when Jack Wellman, a former FBI contract hacker who stalks Hana, texted her offering her information on the case. Kenny insisted on accompanying her to a meeting with him and intervened when Wellman attempted to follow Hana after she left.
Following the departure of FBI Special Agent Clinton Skye who also served as the team's sharpshooter, Crosby became the team's newest sharpshooter/sniper. After being shot and left badly wounded during the FBI Season 3 premiere episode, "All That Glitters", having assisted New York field agents Maggie Bell and OA Zidan on a case, Crosby survived and returned home to Oklahoma to begin a long process of recovery. FBI Special Agent Kristin Gaines, an agent assigned to the FBI's Miami field office replaced him.[2]
Sheryll Barnes[edit]
Sheryll Barnes (portrayed by Roxy Sternberg) is the second in command of the Fugitive Task Force.
Barnes is an ex-NYPD detective with elevated street smarts thanks to undercover gang work in the Bronx. Often referred to by her surname, Barnes is a kind soul, gentle and empathetic with victims and affectionate of her team. This is not to be mistaken for weakness; when interviewing suspects and while undercover, Barnes is cool, confident, and tough as nails. As a woman and an African American, Barnes occasionally faces sexist and racist comments from suspects, but she handles them well. She knows Special Agent Stuart Scola from their time in Quantico. According to her in the first part of the FBI and FBI: Most Wanted crossover "American Dreams", Stuart slept with her roommate, Nicole. He neither confirms nor denies that statement.
In season 1 episode 4 "Caesar" Barnes revealed her past of undercover work in the Bronx, NY. After a single suspect massacres several gang members, Barnes resumed her old undercover identity to catch the suspect when she discovered an old friend is mixed up in the situation. When she contacted this friend, a nurse named Sandra, we find she meant a little more to Barnes, and that she was sneaking epilepsy medication to their main suspect, Cleo. During a meeting with Cleo, the new head of a strong gang, Barnes impressed Cleo by staying cool when Cleo shot a snitch in her gang. Cleo agreed to work with Barnes, who proposed a good business gig running product in the high streets of the city.
The following morning, Sandra became upset when Barnes agreed to meet with Cleo, and Barnes spills that she's FBI and is thrown out by Sandra. Surprisingly, when Barnes went to get into a van with Cleo, Sandra appeared and insisted on accompanying Barnes. At the gang's destination, which turned out to be an ambush by the FBI, Cleo briefly held Sandra hostage. Barnes and LaCroix reasoned with Cleo, and she eventually gave herself up.
In episode 8 "Predators", Barnes became emotionally disturbed at the violence with which their main suspects rape and murder their victims, and was disgusted by the joy they took in their actions. She and LaCroix had a discussion about this after meeting an elderly gentleman who fell victim to their suspects but survived. Barnes then encouraged LaCroix to address the rest of the team about how emotionally taxing such cases can be.
Barnes is the wife of Charlotte Gaines, a lawyer as well as the mother of their children, a girl named Anais and a boy named Theo. In the FBI: Most Wanted Season 4 episode, "Taxman", it was revealed that Barnes has been a member of the Fugitive Task Force for ten years, making her the longest-serving member of the team.
Hana Gibson[edit]
Hana Gibson (portrayed by Keisha Castle-Hughes) is a special agent of the Fugitive Task Force.
Gibson is a cowboy boot-wearing FBI Analyst from a conservative Dallas family. She is a master of data-mining and social engineering with a sharp, earthy sense of humor. Tough, playful, young in years but an old soul at heart.
After meeting FBI contract hacker Jack Wellman several years before joining her current team, she decided to go on a date. The chemistry wasn't right for Hana, and she decided not to pursue the relationship. Wellman, however, wouldn't let her go. He flooded her with texts and emails, began showing up at her apartment all hours of the day and night, and sent her classic stalker "gifts." She reported his behavior to the Bureau and he was subsequently fired.
Jack reached out to Hana in season 1 episode 13 "Grudge", telling her that he could help the team find their cyberstalker if she agreed to meet with him. The meeting was unproductive, and Hana left.
Later Hana confronted Wellman in the same coffee shop. She told him that he was not entitled to anything from her, and that he was not a part of her life, never had been, and never would be. She walked away with a small smile on her face while Wellman sit dumbstruck in the background.

Following Clinton's departure, fellow FBI agent Kenny Crosby, FBI Special Agent Ivan Ortiz and later FBI Special Agent Ray Cannon became the team's new sharpshooters.
