Brad BELLICK

Captain Bellick passed the Correctional Officer Exam the autumn after he graduated from high school and has been employed at Fox River Penitentiary ever since. In that time, he slowly and steadily climbed up the C.O. ranks. He is played by Wade Williams.


Three years ago, despite several claims of inmate abuse (none of which could ever be corroborated), Bellick was promoted to the position of captain, the highest rank a C.O. can earn. His duties included: aiding in the transportation of death row inmates to the electric chair, supervising Fox River’s prison industries program and overseeing the day-to-day operations of all the inmates in general population.

Captain Bellick’s practices were called into question after The Fox River Eight escaped on his watch. His job with the Department of Corrections was swiftly terminated, leaving Bellick to ponder what the future held for him. Looking for revenge, Bellick teamed with another disgraced Fox River C.O., Roy Geary, to track down the eight escapees. Their desire for revenge quickly turned to greed when they discovered the escapees were likely going to dig up five million dollars in stolen money.

Bellick and Geary caught up with T-Bag in Kansas. T-Bag has recently stolen the five million dollars from the other escapees, so Bellick and Geary tortured him to find out where he had stashed Westmoreland’s money. Once they found the money , Geary double crossed Bellick and took it all for himself. T-Bag later caught up with Geary. Murdered him, and framed Bellick for the killing.

Bellick soon found himself back at Fox River, but this time as a prisoner. His stay was a short one, though, because the FBI cut a deal with Bellick so he could assist in tracking down the escaped prisoners.

Bellick later headed to Panama, supposedly going after the illusive five million dollars. While in Panama, he was found with a dead prostitute in a local hotel room. He’s awaiting trial in Sona Prison.
