James McCaffrey sadly passed away on December 17, 2023. The actor appeared in "Blue Bloods" at the beginning of the series in a 2011 episode and toward its end during a 2022 episode. Unfortunately, in 2023, McCaffrey's representative confirmed the actor had passed away due to his multiple myeloma cancer diagnosis, per TMZ. "One of Dick Wolf's proteges (Swift Justice), McCaffrey went on to a successful 35-year career in television and film. Trained at the Actor's Studio, he never lost his love for creating characters; however, his good looks often pushed him toward leading man roles," his rep said.
