The Sons Of Anarchy Character You Forgot Dave Navarro Played

Per The Hollywood Reporter, during the last two episodes of "Sons of Anarchy" Season 5, Navarro portrays Arcadio Nerona, a member of the Byz Lats street gang. The Byz Lats gang is introduced in Season 5 via their affiliation with former leader Nero Padilla (Jimmy Smits). As Nero becomes more involved in the lives of Jax and Gemma Teller Morrow (Katey Sagal) throughout the season, the Byz Lats begin working together with SAMCRO. It's also revealed in the series that Arcadio is the cousin of Nero, and that family link makes his final appearance in "Sons of Anarchy" much more tragic.

In Season 6, Arcadio meets his demise because of his cousin. In the episode "One One Six," Arcadio is last seen trying to help his girlfriend escape from SAMCROW. The gang is trying to keep her hidden from authorities, as a tragic incident related to her deceased son can be traced back to the club. However, Arcadio's girlfriend is convinced that the gang will eventually kill her. As Arcadio holds off Jax and Gemma at gunpoint and plans to join his girlfriend in an escape, Nero murders him with a shot to the head. The family murder is horrific, and could even be seen as a bit of foreshadowing for the conflict between Jax and Gemma in the final season.
