Carlton Lassiter
Head Detective Carlton Lassiter (Timothy Omundson) would sooner arrest Shawn Spencer than follow any of his psychic "visions".
A straight-shooting, 10-year veteran of the Santa Barbara Police Department, Lassiter has worked his way to the top by conducting investigations cleanly, efficiently, and always by the book. This leaves little room for Shawn to intervene, and plenty of frustration when he inevitably does.
