Justin is a main character and a survivor of the outbreak in The Walking Dead: The Telltale Series. He is one of the two deuteragonists in "Vince's Story". He is a convict who is seen with Vince, Danny, Jerry, and Marcus.
Overview[]
Justin is a selfish and deceitful individual. He was convicted of a pyramid scheme and states that he feels no remorse and even lied on the stand. Despite this, he seemed to be on relatively good terms with Danny and Vince. When Marcus begins to choke Jerry, Justin insists to not get involved, which is in contrast to Danny who immediately tries to help. If Vince chooses to save Justin, it's revealed that Justin ditched him to find a safe settlement, showing his selfishness.
Pre-Apocalypse[]
Location Unknown[]
Before the outbreak, Justin was a pyramid scheme entrepreneur who made around $100,000,000 before being caught. When he was put on trial, he "cried his eyes out," and lied that he didn't know what he was doing. However, he was found guilty, and as the outbreak began he was being transported to a prison with four other prisoners. He possibly has a brother, as he mentions that when Vince keeps pointing his gun at him.

"400 Days"[]
"Vince's Story"[]
2 days into the outbreak, Vince, Justin, and Danny are being transported to prison on a prison bus. At some point they get stuck in traffic, so the three started to talk about their crimes. Shortly after, Marcus Crabtree starts choking Jerry with his handcuffs due to the pair having an argument that got out of control. Justin wants Bennett, the guard in the bus, to handle it, while Danny wants to help him himself. Since they are chained and can't do anything, Danny shouts at the guard and told him to stop them. The guard tells them to stop several times, but Crabtree won't stop. The guard doesn't intervene fast enough, so Jerry is choked to death. Finally, the guard shoots Crabtree in the head, killing him. The driver doesn't call an ambulance to help the prisoner, so Bennett, the guard on the prisoner's side of the gate, gets into a heated argument with Justin, Vince, and Danny about what he should do. Jerry reanimates and bites Bennett in the neck. The prison bus driver suddenly flees the bus, leaving the three remaining prisoners for dead. The zombified prisoner is not able to get to the trio because of the the restraint chaining his foot to the floor. The dead guard has a shotgun under his body, so Justin, Vince and Danny work together to flip his body over, with Vince being the one to take the weapon. Vince then shoots the reanimated prisoner in the head.
After killing the reanimated Jerry, the trio tries to find a way off the bus, with no luck, when a walker enters the bus. Danny mistakes it for a human, therefore shouting at it. Walkers soon board the bus but are stopped by the gate, which they attempt to force their way through. Justin and Danny demand Vince shoot them, to which Vince obliges, striking one of the walkers in the stomach. To the trio's shock the shot has little to no effect on the walker. The three then continue to try to find a way out of the bus. Danny suggests shooting one of them in the ankle because then the chain could slip out and they'll all be free. Justin disagrees, but, coming up with no better ideas, Vince decides it's the best thing to do. Vince can then choose to shoot Justin or Danny to get free.
In-Game Decision[]
Shoot Justin's Ankle Off (Undead): If Vince shoots off Justin's foot, he will get left behind and die from blood loss. It can be determined by the image in the credits that Justin barely made it out of the prison truck before several walkers started to gain on him. In Russell's Story, depending on what dialogue is chosen in-game while speaking to Nate, walkers manifest from the forest and a zombified Justin can be seen crawling towards the truck.
Shoot Danny's Ankle Off (Unknown): In a determinant epilogue dialogue that occurs if Vince shot off Danny's foot on his story, Vince will mention Justin ditched him to look for a safe haven similar to Tavia's settlement on his own.
"Russell's Story"[]
If you shot off Justin's foot in Vince's story, and played that story before Russell's and decided to not go with Nate in his truck in Russell's story, then 184 days into the apocalypse, Justin will appear as a walker, crawling from the woods.
Death (Determinant)[]
- Killed By
- Clyde (Indirectly Caused, Alive)
Clyde left Vince, Danny and Justin in the bus, instead of driving away, indirectly causing Justin's death.
After obtaining a shotgun and having no way of getting the chains off, Danny suggests shooting at the cuff in order to get the chain out. Vince decides to shoot Justin's leg so he and Danny can run free.
After desperately trying to escape the prison bus, Justin dies from blood loss and reanimates. If the player decides to not go in the truck with Nate in Russell's Story, Justin will appear as one of the walkers crawling towards Russell.

"Can't hold this fatass up much longer, Vince..." "Are you fucking insane? What do you think is gonna happen if you fire a shotgun that close to someone's foot?!" "Whoa, whoa, whoa!
