Seth Ridley dismissed from LAPD in The Rookie Season 7

In The Rookie Season 7, fans are concerned about the fate of a new character, Seth Ridley. Ridley, assigned to Officer Lucy Chen, made several mistakes during his training. These mistakes raised doubts among his superiors about his potential as a police officer. In a recent episode, Chen tasked Ridley with guarding a hospital room. This room held one of three teenage girls who had been stabbed in a park. During this time, Chen discovered that Ridley was hiding a serious issue. He spoke to his former oncologist about his cancer returning, but he mentioned that he was referred to a new doctor because the former was not in the LAPD insurance network. Chen later discussed Ridley's situation with another officer's wife, who revealed troubling information about Ridley’s previous oncologist. After this revelation, Ridley was confronted by Sergeant Wade Grey and Sergeant Tim Bradford. They expressed concerns about Ridley’s honesty and demanded he provide proof of his cancer diagnosis through a blood draw. Ridley was frustrated and accused his colleagues of suggesting he was lying. When he refused the blood draw, Grey ordered him to hand over his badge and gun. This led to Ridley's dismissal from the LAPD, marking a dramatic turn in his short career on the show.
