[edit] Before Veto Power
Sharpton spent eight years in the Air Force, four with the Office of Special Investigations, before leaving to join the FBI. He served as a field agent at FBI San Francisco, but personal problems and his talent with computers pushed him away from field duty.
He wrote a virus that could wipe out all data on an infected hard drive, as well as performing more surgical tasks, such as erasing all existant copies of one or more files.
[edit] Veto Power
After receiving a panicked phone call from Debra Drexler, Sharpton ordered Jessi Bandison to hack into the Department of Justice's computer system so that he could use his bloodhound virus to destroy incriminating photos of Drexler. However, Jessi thought it was just a training exercise. When she discovered that it was not, she told Ryan Chappelle who had Kelly arrested.
During the day, Kelly also badly burned his hand with napalm while trying to stop a bomb at the aparment of Frank Newhouse. Sharpton gained the respect of Jack Bauer by his "style" during the course of the day. Kelly started hostile to Jack Bauer's "loose-canon" plans but slowly they started to work togethor and gain each others respect.
[edit] Cat's Claw
In Cat's Claw, Sharpton was called by Jessi Bandison for support and saves Jack Bauer from terrorists. In a firefight with terrorists along with Jack, Kelly was shot and killed.
