Jim Moore was head of security at Cloverdale's Iron Butte lab before the outbreak. He once nearly came to blows with Deacon at the lab gate until Sarah stepped in. After the collapse he held the facility with his guards and kept everyone else out.
When Deacon and Sarah return to Cloverdale, they find her coworkers shot outside. Moore admits he killed them because he could not take the risk. Once he opens the lab, Sarah turns his own words on him and shoots him.
