[edit] In Jurassic Park (novel)
John Arnold was Jurassic Park's chief engineer. He was referred to as Ray Arnold in the film in order to differentiate between him and John Hammond, though some believe that was his middle name. Before working at Jurassic Park, he had worked at many theme parks and zoos, including Disneyland. He also worked as a naval engineer. He was killed by a Velociraptor in the shed in both the film and the novel.
[edit] In Jurassic Park Films
Ray Arnold was also the chief engineer in the film. After Dennis Nedry turns the power off he tells John Hammond that he can't get Jurassic Park back online without Nedry. After he shuts down the entire system, he goes to the power bunker to re-boot Jurassic Park. He is ultimately killed by the Velociraptors offscreen. Later Ellie Sattler finds his dismembered arm after she had rebooted the power.
After the incident in Jurassic Park, Arnold's family sued InGen in a multi-million dollar lawsuit as did the families of Robert Muldoon and Donald Gennaro, two other characters who had perished due to the dinosaurs.
