Jennings & Rall (commonly abbreviated to J&R) is a fictional government contractor company that is part of the television series Jericho. The company plays an important role in the plot.
[edit] Jennings & Rall in Jericho's plot
In season 2 it is revealed that the company was hired by the new government of the Allied States of America to take care of the administration of the territory. Like the new government, the company is based in Cheyenne, Wyoming.
Current and former employees of Jennings & Rall have included A.S.A. President Tomarchio, Trish Merrick, Mimi Clark, and "John Smith".
The company was sponsor of Tomarchio's campaign for president before the September attacks. According to "John Smith" he wrote a Continuity of Government Report for Jennings & Rall in the case of nuclear attacks on 25 American cities. "John Smith" believed that Jennings & Rall was trying to take over the federal government long before the attacks and decided to put the supposed attack in action destroying 23 of the 25 cities, the attack on New York being averted, and Columbus wasn't bombed because Hawkings failed to 'deliver the package,' where Jennings & Rall had a strong presence. He had plans to steal the bomb that the Allied States of America army confiscated from Hawkins to blow up Cheyenne and destroy the company once and for all.
[edit] Ravenwood
According to the plot, the company also includes a wholly-owned subsidiary, Ravenwood, which is a private military company that first appeared in the season one episode "Rogue River". The organization is hired by the United States government to assist in evacuation procedures following the nuclear attacks, a move attributed to insufficient numbers of National Guard troops. However, the Ravenwood mercenaries sent to help in Rogue River instead loot the town's medical supplies and murder unmovable patients at the town's hospital. They later attempt to enter Jericho, but when that fails they instead attack New Bern. When ASA soldiers occupy Jericho, the same Ravenwood team is sent in to take over the town's administration. During their control they embezzle confiscated goods from Dale Turner and funds from Jennings & Rall. The latter leads to the team's discharge after being exposed by Mimi Clark despite their attempt to assassinate her which leads to the death of Bonnie Richmond and a shootout at the town hospital.
Members include John Goetz, a squad leader, later Chief Administrator of Jericho and Randy Payton, a soldier.
