'''Jordan Durham''' is an agent for the [[Caprica City]] bureau of the [[Global Defense Department]] (GDD), [[Caprica (RDM)|Caprica]]'s law enforcement and intelligence service. 

He is investigating the terrorist bombing of the [[Lev]] subway train and those connected to it. He and his agency have connected the bombing to the terrorist group [[Soldiers of the One]] (STO), linking [[Ben Stark]] to the bombing in particular. He also has a link with [[Zoe Graystone]] to the bombing beyond that of a victim, uncovering an incriminating e-mail sent to her mother [[Amanda Graystone]] seconds before the explosion that had the tone of a goodbye note. It ''was'' a goodbye note, but only to inform her parents of her running away. However, from Durham's perspective and the context of the bombing, in addition to Amanda's declaration at [[Apollo Park]], it appears to implicate Zoe's involvement with the STO ([[Caprica pilot|''Caprica'' pilot]], "[[Rebirth]]", "[[The Reins of a Waterfall]]").

Pursuing that theory, Durham later uses the ensuing media attention and a sympathetic judge to secure a warrant from [[Inter-Colonial Court]] that allows him to search both the [[Greystone Estate]] and the [[Athena Academy]] for further evidence of Zoe's guilt. However, he gave credit to fellow agent [[Youngblood]] in an effort to get her back into Director [[Gara Singh|Gara Singh's]] good graces after an earlier clerical error which indirectly allowed the bombing to occur (The Reins of a Waterfall).  

Durham later asks for permission to include the media in the search, receiving permission from Singh, but with the caveat that the search must be "tasteful" ([[Gravedancing]]).

-Duram has been married multiple times, and has a young son. He is also a devout polytheist, which may be one of the reasons for his passionate pursuit of the STO {{CAP|Retribution|Blowback}}.

-Following the [[Maglev 23]] bombing, he is tasked with its investigation, connecting the bombing to the terrorist group [[Soldiers of the One]] (STO), linking [[Ben Stark]] to the bombing in particular. He also has a link with [[Zoe Graystone]] to the bombing beyond that of a victim, uncovering an incriminating e-mail sent to her mother [[Amanda Graystone]] seconds before the explosion that had the tone of a goodbye note. It ''was'' a goodbye note, but only to inform her parents of her running away, as she was oblivious of Stark's true intentions―just as Amanda was oblivious to Zoe's relationship with Stark, when Duram questions her on it. However, from Duram's perspective and the context of the bombing, in addition to Amanda's declaration at [[Apollo Park]], such act implicates Zoe's involvement with the STO {{CAP|Pilot|Rebirth|Reins of a Waterfall}}.

-==Notes==
-* According to the producers, the character was written and portrayed with a "great seriousness of purpose" to avoid him coming across as a "stock law enforcement guy." The goal was to give the audience the sense that he is genuinely trying to protect people and do his job.<ref>[[Podcast:Caprica pilot|Podcast for ''Caprica'' pilot]], timestamp 00:36:23</ref>
-* In "[[Rebirth]]," the character's name was spelled '''Durham''' on-screen. However, screenplays, credits and behind the scenes evidence suggest that this was just an error by the art department.
-* Brian Markinson's upgrade from guest star to series star as of "Rebirth" suggests that the writers had planned to include more of the character in the show. He appears less often than any of the other main cast, having been featured in only half of the show's eighteen episodes.
-* According to [[Tom Lieber]], actor [[Brian Markinson]] is a prolific actor in the Vancouver area, having appeared in nearly every major science fiction series filmed there, including ''[[w:The X-Files|The X-Files]]'' and ''[[w:Supernatural (American TV series)|Supernatural]]''. Lieber refers to him as the "Old Yeller of Vancouver" for his reliability and consistent presence in local productions.<ref>[[Podcast:Blowback|Podcast for "Blowback"]], timestamp 12:35</ref>
