Biography

Bodie begins the series as a low ranking drug dealer in the low rises. Bodie fully buys into the mystique and glamor of gangsta lifestyle, believing that as a loyal, competent, ambitious soldier, he can eventually rise up through the ranks of his world and become a kingpin like Stringer and Avon. He does indeed catch Stringer's eye and is promoted to a mid-level position, but subsequently loses Stringer's favor somewhat as Stringer begins moving the Barksdale Organization away from violence, a change in methods which Bodie needs some time to adjust to, although he eventually does.
