Biography

Gary Schaffer became chief of the Carcer City Police Department at an unknown time prior to the events of Manhunt. While in that position, he started to take bribes from Starkweather and in return gave him unlimited access to large sections of Carcer City for his snuff projects. After the conclusion of Manhunt, he was put on trial for corruption charges but was deemed not guilty due to all the witnesses disappearing from the case. It is likely that he had them silenced or killed.

Events

After Cash escapes from Starkweather's trap in the Darkwoods Penitentiary and kills Ramirez and his hit squad of Wardogs, Schaffer is contacted by Starkweather as a last resort and is ordered by him to capture Cash and a Journalist who had recently been investigating the Director's activities. Schaffer dispatches multiple officers and SWAT teams to Central Carcer to apprehend Cash and has the Journalist's apartment raided in an attempt to sieze evidence of Starkweather's crimes. Cash escorts the Journalist to her apartment, killing many officers along the way. After securing the evidence, he sends her off and fights his way through the SWAT-infested Carcer City Subway and finally shakes the police off at a railyard.

Trivia

• His surname suggests that he is of German origin.
