A corrupt officer in the GCPD, JT Wicker, has been working as a mole and informant for the Riddler for years, helping Nigma stay one step ahead of the police and feeding him inside information that he could use against them. Their partnership started ten years ago, when Nigma, then going by the name Eddie Nashton, infiltrated the GCPD as the head of the Cyber Crimes Unit.
In the runup to Halloween, and Riddler's latest scheme against Batman, he planted several of Nigma's trophies throught GCPD headquarters.
When Batman discovered Wicker’s ties to the Riddler, he confronted the officer, demanding he reveal everything he knew about Nigma’s plans. Unable to convince his fellow officers that Batman was lying, Wicker confessed, shocking and disgusting his colleagues.
He spent the rest of the evening locked in a holding cell. Wicker attempted to garner sympathy from his colleagues, claiming he was a triple agent and acting on Gordon's behalf, though no one believed him.
Realising he had no allies, he dropped his act, lashing out at Batman. He called out Batman's hypocracy and brutal methods, blaming him for Riddler's mental breakdown and obsession with humiliating, unmasking and killing the vigilante.
