Reed Garrett - CSI: NY | CSI: New YorkWhat do we know about Reed:

Reed Garrett is the son of Claire Conrad Taylor, Mac's late wife. Claire had gotten pregnant with Reed with her high school sweetheart long before she met Mac, and had put him up for adoption.
At first, Reed had believed that Stella Bonasera was Claire, having observed the close friendship between Mac and Stella. He had started to stalk her but was afraid to speak to her. After he learned the truth, Reed was reluctant to connect with Mac because Mac is not his biological father. Still, Reed knows that Mac is the only link he has to knowing more about his mother. In "Sweet 16", Mac visits Reed at his home for Thanksgiving, and invites him to dinner, only to be interrupted by a call to a crime scene. Mac reluctantly leaves after giving Reed photos of Claire.


Backstory:
Reed stalked Stella for some time under the impression that she was his mother, Claire.


Work style:
During season 4, Reed is shown to have become interested in journalism, putting him at odds with Mac while trying to follow a case where a serial killer goes on the loose killing victims in a taxicab. He is shown getting unknowingly into the killer's cab at the end of the episode "Personal Foul", but the driver doesn't kill him and instead gives him information on the "cabbie killer" to post on his blog. In the episode "Taxi", he is kidnapped by the "cabbie killer", who wishes to use Reed to get his message across, but by leaving hints in his online blog, Mac and the team are able to find him. Mac is seen coming out of the hospital with Reed when he is released and Mac calls for a taxi.
