| Birthdate: | 1956-02-09 |
BioPlayer: Kate
Played By: Jeremy Irons
Character Info
Full name: Josaiah Samuel Davids
Nicknames: J.D., Joe, Sam, Davids
Gender: Male
Age: 50
Date of Birth: Feb 9th 1956
Birthplace: Houstin, Texas
Nationality: Israeli/American
Physical Appearance: Josaiah is 6’2, has short brown hair and unremarkable brown eyes. Occasionally the older man will grow a scruffy beard or allow his hair to grow longer, brushing his shoulders instead of clipped short. With the voice of a serpant crossed with an angel, Dr. Davids has been described as being a lady charmer. His thin, fit figure is kept that way by maintaining his horses and Great Dane on his farm.
Background
Josaiah Samuel Davids was born to an Israeli immagrant named Shari who’s husband, Jacob, was the Alco Magnolia Oil Field owner in Harris County in Houstin, Texas. Shari died in child birth leaving Jacob to raise the baby boy by himself. Being the over zealous catholic man that he was, Jacob beat good christian beliefs into his son until he was 18 years old and left the house to pursue his own career. Jacob never pushed the boy to take over his business and encouraged him to go on his own career path. Josaiah chose medicine.
Josaiah spent several boring years studying hard through University to get his BAS in Science and working towards his Medical Degree. At first he wasn’t sure what he wanted to do but after the third year into his four year medical degree stint, he decided to go through to be a Neurosurgeon. Taking the proper courses was no problem for Josaiah, as he already had extremely high marks in them. He had always taken a serious interest in science, never really caring for the spiritual or religious aspects in life due to his father’s idea of upbringing.
Having spent his whole life in Texas, J.D. was starting to get a little stir crazy and needed to get out. So when he was accepted into Yale’s Neuroscience program, he was extatic. With love and a hefty bank account from his father, Josaiah travelled far north to take up residence in New Haven, Conneticut to continue his education and goal of being a Neurosurgeon.
It was there at Yale, during his second year of residency that he met Margaret Elizabeth Price. She too had been going through for Neuroscience and so they were in many of the same courses together and had the same work loads. It was later that year that the two were married and began their happy lives together.
In the summer of 1986, Josaiah’s father passed on. He had a sudden heart attack while monitoring the oil rigs and was dead before they could get the man to the hospital. Beth was slightly disturbed by her husband’s lack of emotion at the older man’s funeral and when they found out that Jacob had left all of his estate and business to Josaiah and her. It was not until a month later that Josaiah had broken down into sobs at the loss of his beloved father.
The couple were quite well off and Jacob’s money helped them get through their expensive years at Yale. Josaiah appointed businessmen and tradesmen to run his new company for him and every summer he would go back to Texas to oversee things. However that life was not for him…he only kept it going for his father’s sake who had loved the business.
The couple had been expecting their first child when Beth was killed. It had been in a convenience store robbery by a young man named Lukas Piezas. Beth took two slugs to the chest at close range and could not be revived; the baby too was lost. Josaiah again did not react right away but continued to go to school. He suddenly snapped in the middle of classes one day, sobbing and becoming violent when anyone came close to him. The love of his life had been snatched away from him…there had to be justice for her! Josaiah decided that he would quit school and use his money to have the man who had murdered his wife sent to Texas where Capital Punishment was still the choice thing to do with those types of offenders.
After five long, hard, lonely years of court dates and trials and juries and lawyers…Josaiah’s long awaited day of sentancing for Lukas finally came. Much to Josaiah’s disappointment, Lukas was not transferred from a Conneticut facility to Texas for the death penalty that he felt the man deserved…but was sent to a facility for the criminally insane where he would be taken care of.
Dr. Davids snapped once again and drew into seclusion and alcohol abuse but not in Texas, nor New Haven…J.D. sold his father’s oil field and company then travelled much further south to South America. No one knows where the man was exactly until he finally resurfaced in San Juan, enrolled in a program at the University of Puerto Rico to get his MD/JD ((Medical/juditial))combined degree.
After seven long years of studing in Puerto Rico, he returned to the United States, back to his home state where he picked up a job for the Harris County Sherriff’s department. Josaiah was a much darker man, his old friends would say, since returning from the southern hemisphere…some say it was because he never got over his wife’s death and others say that he had seen things down there that were just not right. Either way, Josaiah returned to America a changed man.
Dr. Davids was the scheduled psychiatrist for several of the prisons in the Harris county area for guards and prisoners alike. Those prisoners that were in for councelling were generally those that were scheduled for release some day. Josaiah refused to councel any of the prisoners on death row until he managed to come to a deal with the warden.
The deal that the two men had made was that Josaiah would research how the prisoners interacted and thought and once they were excicuted, he would be allowed to disect the brain to find out more knowledge. Josaiah enjoyed his work quite a bit…sometimes if he had found out about what the prisoners had done on death row and found their crimes to be terrible against women, he would mutilate the brain after finding what he needed, diriving a sick sort of pleasure in this strange revenge.
He did not like Texas though…it brought too many hard memories of his father and he longed to be back where Beth had been buried. So, having requested a recommendation at another correctional facility from the warden, Josaiah returned to New Haven to live.
Josaiah could not return to the home that they had shared and so he bought a small farm just outside of New Haven where he bought two horses and his dog that he had brought with him from Texas. Dr. Davids had sat in on a long going trial concerning a young woman named ‘Lucy’ and saw the sadness and look of loss on the Doctor’s face who was fighting to keep the girl at her institution. Josaiah’s heart went out to Dr. Naomi Graves for he knew the pain of loss too well and felt that she had been right in the case. He approached the woman after the trials, giving her his sympathies but also offering his services as a MD/JD to her for her Cherry Hollow facility.

Jeremy Irons has nothing to do with this journal other than me using his image as a representation for a role playing character that I made up completely with my own imagination. Please don't sue me.
