Luke Dickerson

Luke Dickerson is an Atlanta thug later becoming a serious nemesis of George Fraley as a robber, mass assailant, and attempted murderer when he appeared in Blue Highways in Profiler.

Background
Little is known about Luke Dickerson other than the police already knew him well as a neighborhood though with an extensive rap sheet.

Blue Highways
Dickerson is first seen when George Fraley enters his favorite video store, confused on why the cashier, Ben, is speechless until he turns and sees his hacker friend Eddie unconscious. Dickerson then appears and knows Fraley down, continuing to steal cash and demanding getting to the safe. He then goes for Fraley's money, then gets excited seeing his FBI identity. When Fraley says he's their tech assistant, Dickerson doesn't care and holds him at gunpoint with the intention of shooting him for being with the feds. When his gun jammed, he called Fraley "lucky" before kicking his stomach and then pistol-whipping Ben's eye before running off. Ben ended up going half-blind and Eddie's jaw needed to be wired shut. Eddie was too scared to identify Dickerson, so Dickerson walked. This infuriated Fraley so much, despite the disapproval of John Grant, he bought a gun and looked for Dickerson. When he corner him in an alley, he held Dickerson at gun point and confronted him about the damage he did while Dickerson begged for his life. Grant appeared, but being with the FBI as well, Dickerson lost hope. He started to cry as Fraley pinned him against the wall face first, then he let Grant arrest Dickerson for his crimes at the video store. Dickerson used coercion and police brutality as his defense to be cut loose. But Fraley succeeded in, with his own content, reissuing all of Dickerson's outdated warrants to guarantee his arrest no matter what, saying "no matter where he goes, he's not waking around a free man". If he was arrested, it's assumed he was incarcerated as a result.

Modus Operandi
Dickerson barely has an MO, simply, he robbed a video store and the people there with a revolver while wearing gloves, attacking everyone at the store to keep them from fighting and chasing him, so badly it even disabled and cause severe damage to some of the people at the store. When he tried to kill George Fraley, he nearly assassinated him by shooting him in the head, but he abandoned that spur of the moment attack when the gun jammed.
