Background
In 1997, Cardoza left the Miami-Dade Police Department, transferring to LA following the conclusion of a case which led to Horatio Caine becoming lead CSI. He returned in 2009 as a member of Caine's team.
His first reappearance was in the episode "Hostile Takeover", when he was talking to the receptionist, then a mentally unstable man, takes him and three others hostage. In the conclusion of the episode, Jesse returns to Horatio's team. Horatio even welcomes him back and tells him to replace his LAPD badge with the MDPD badge.
Cardoza was in the crime lab when it was poisoned, and dies after he apparently hit his head during his fall, suffering a subdural hematoma. The CSIs make an unsuccessful attempt to revive him. Walter is most upset by his death and talks to his body about a game they had planned for the night. His body will be sent back to California and buried there. Later Walter plays his game, and the rest of the CSI's join him and Horatio dedicates it to Jesse. Horatio's shot gets nothing but net, as he is a terrific ball player.
Personal life
A mileage discrepancy in the vehicle logs from a day when Calleigh lent him her Hummer led her to confront Cardoza about the differences. After a heated discussion, he then told her that he was following a woman who was living with a serial killer he had investigated during his time in LA who had also killed his wife.
