During the pilot episode, Warrick becomes too involved in a case, breaking protocol to get a warrant, Grissom  removes him from the case and pairs him up with new CSI  [[Holly Gribbs]]. Upon hearing of a suspect's arrest in the other case, Warrick leaves Holly by herself, unsupervised, to witness the arrest. The suspect goes back to the scene of the crime and Holly is shot. 
During the first episode he left a crime scene, leaving a new CSI, [[Holly Gribbs]], on her own without backup so he could place a bet on a team for a judge. The perpetrator of the crime Holly and Warrick were investigating returned to the scene and murdered Holly. Their supervisor, Gil Grissom was supposed to fire Warrick for this, but having already lost one CSI, he did not want to lose another.

In [[Cool Change]], Holly succumbs to her injuries and dies. Grissom is supposed to fire Warrick, but can't bring himself to do it. Grissom brings in Sara Sidle, a woman he knows from California, to help with the investigation into Holly's murder. Her and Warrick are immediately at odds. In [[Crate 'n Burial|Crate N' Burial]], Warrick and Catherine investigate the hit and run of a little girl.

Warrick "Rick" Brown (October 10, 1970 - May 17, 2008[1]) was a level three Crime Scene Investigator at the Las Vegas Crime Lab.

Personality

To let off steam, Warrick DJs at clubs run by his friends and writes his own songs. Spending his whole life in the city means that Warrick knows at least one person in most bars, clubs, and hotels there. He's connected, and he uses those connections to move between his worlds.

Warrick knows how all the games are played in Las Vegas and is aware of the universal truth of the city: only the house wins consistently because the odds are stacked against everyone else.

Warrick is enough of a rebel to challenge those odds, and he is enough of a realist to know that he needs to watch out for himself, so he'll cut his losses to fight again another day if need be.

He had a severe gambling problem, one that started to cross into his professional career.

Early Life

Warrick was the only member of the team born and raised in Las Vegas. Warrick was born to live in Vegas. He loved the casinos, the action and the pulse of the city.

Until the day he died, Warrick never met his father. His mother died when he was seven, leaving Warrick in the care of his maternal grandmother.

Warrick grew up in a strict household, and that meant he kept his position as a runner a secret from his grandmother.

Throughout his teenage years, Warrick worked as a casino runner: someone who jots down sports bets and runs between casinos to place those bets. [citation needed]

He put himself through college working as a taxi driver, a bell captain at the Sahara, selling helicopter rides over the Grand Canyon, and a grave digger before finding his way to the Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department and its CSI. [citation needed]
