Revision as of 03:57, 9 December 2011 by 71.202.132.106 (talk) (→On the job)(diff) ← Previous revision | Latest revision (diff) | Newer revision → (diff)Walter Simmons is a fictional character on the CBS crime drama CSI: Miami, portrayed by actor Omar Benson Miller.
Background
Simmons, a Louisiana native and fluent French speaker, is a CSI from the night shift who transfers to Horatio Caine's day shirt team in season 8. He is an art theft specialist promoted to the main cast after three episodes.
Relationship With Colleagues
Simmons generally has a good working relationship with all the team members. His sense of humor has made him a likeable personality amongst his more senior colleagues. He was especially close to the late Jesse Cardoza and often played basketball with him. Ryan Wolfe took him under his wing, and the duo have a friendly relationship, though Wolfe occasionally enjoys "pulling the seniority card" and leaves Simmons with the undesirable tasks.
Initially he was distrustful of veteran CSI Eric Delko when Delko was conducting undercover investigations in the episode "Time Bomb", but has since had a mutual respect for him.
On the job
Despite his stature, Simmons seems to be easily frightened by large animals and human remains. Hence he is rarely seen in the autopsy room and handles trace evidence instead.
As the lowest ranking CSI, Simmons is sometimes given the dirtier and unwanted tasks, such as retrieving a dead repoman flushed down a toilet and collecting trace from a large pile of rocks.
In the episode "Hunting Ground" it is revealed that he speaks French fluently.
