Charlie Wexler is an officer with the Spearfish Lake Police Department. He is introduced in 2007 as Sergeant and second-in-command.SK1

"When Harry Novato, the old police chief, had hung up his badge a couple years before, the young punk of a city manager they’d had at the time had decided to open up the position. The decision had officially been because he didn’t think that Charlie was seasoned enough to take the job"SK2 When the new chief Bill Abernathy landed in trouble, Charlie was promoted to Interim Chief "until such time as the matter with Abernathy is resolved."SK17 By 2010, this appointment had apparently been turned permanent, giving him the headache of providing twenty-four-hour police coverage using himself, two full-time officers and the rest by part-time officers.BITH26

Charlie was described as "a little guy, 5’5”, and had a small frame, so was possibly a little light at 130 pounds. He had the basic martial arts stuff and some of the tricks – Harry had spent time with him on that – as well as the basic police procedures, but he was not a guy to put fear into the spine of a drunken pulp logger just by looking at him."BITH26

It was Charlie that got Frenchy LeDroit to confess to his assault of Alan Jahnke and friendsBITH44 and witness statements from Brianna Melbourne and Vanessa Robideaux. It was his police work that brought assault cases against Frenchy LeDroit, Matthew Effingham, and Larry Coopshaw to Judge Dieball.BITH45

Charlie considered Cody Archer his protégé, teaching Cody marksmanship and attempting to convince him to become a policeman in future.

Charlie assisted Sheriff Steve Stoneslinger plan to raid the football team's pre-practice party and brought most of his part-time officers in to staff the raid.BOF18
