Lieutenant Winship is played by Tom Wright.

Personality
Lt. Winship is a responsible, cautious, and honorable man. He is dedicated to stopping evildoers in Los Angeles as much as possible, as well as keeping his team relatively safe and under control. He doesn't like police like Tom McNiece, who abuse their power to hurt people. He has a dry wit.

Family
Ben has a wife named Halle, who once dated Terrell, and they have children--a daughter named Maddy, and a son named Benny Jr.

Ben also has a wealthy brother, Henry Winship, though the brothers are not close. Henry's daughter, Justine, is Ben's niece.
