Brad in Orange Is the New Black, William Henke played Desmond Piscatella.
Despite playing various roles over the years, Brad William Henke is still best known for his role as Desmond Piscatella in the Netflix comedy series Orange Is the New Black. Desmond was a villain who appeared on the show from seasons four to six. Despite the small role, the character’s presence contributed significantly to the plot of the show. He enjoys being in charge and is always proud of his position in front of the detainees. Despite this, he is not very successful in his job because his crew is very violent, which threatens the safety of the convicts. On the other hand, Desmond did everything to avoid punishment and torture the detainees in order to instill fear in the bones of others so that they would not refuse his orders.
Things took a turn for the worse when Desmond became psychotic and began kidnapping and torturing prisoners. Although he had a change of heart by the end of the series, he was unable to live the life of a decent man when he was killed by a CERT officer. Orange Is the New Black aired for seven seasons and 91 episodes from July 11, 2013 to July 26, 2019. It was well received by both reviewers and viewers.
