Sutton Ross was a member of The Blacklist.

Background[]

Sutton Ross was a notorious corporate spy who made a name for himself in the 1980s for stealing research on behalf of foreign companies and nation-states. Ross stole plans for a stealth fighter called Grayscape Seventeen for China, but unknown to him, the United States Navy made sure he stole the schematics for a defective fighter that did not fly. When the plane crashed, China blamed Ross for the disaster and turned him over to the American government, which issued a warrant for his arrest, forcing him to disappear. Ian Garvey, the US Marshal assigned to his capture, protected Ross instead of turning him in. Ross blamed Raymond Reddington for the incident that almost cost him his career and freedom and has been seeking revenge ever since.
