Jefferson White played Sean O’Neal on Chicago P.D. Season 10
Kaplan will be played by Yellowstone star Jefferson White, who One Chicago fans may recognize from his four-episode arc as Sean O’Neal on Chicago P.D. back in Season 10. The son of CPD Chief Patrick O’Neal (Michael Gaston), Sean’s horrific actions as a sex trafficker led to terrible consequences for both father and son.

Judging by the preview clip above, Kaplan earned the nickname “The Selfie Slayer” for the most brutal reasons — and according to Bex, his MO is “interesting.”
“Despite the fact that he carefully selected and then stalked these victims for days, the kills themselves were semi-improvised and always public,” Bex explained to her team in the clip.
It all has the potential to be one of the best episodes of the season. “Lou Kaplan” airs tonight at 10/9c — only on NBC, streaming next-day on Peac.
