Mr. McReary is a character who is mentioned in Grand Theft Auto IV.
History[]
Background[]
Mr. McReary was the husband of Maureen McReary and the father of Derrick, Gerald, Patrick, Francis, and Kate McReary. His first name is never revealed.
Much like most of the McReary family, Mr. McReary also has a criminal background. It can be assumed that he was arrested for murder in or before 1950 and became a fugitive in or before 1961, since his wife Maureen has convictions for Accessory to Murder and Harboring a Fugitive in those years and is stated in the LCPD database to have been a conspirator with him in the 1950s and 1960s.
According to Packie, he was an abusive father and an alcoholic. When Packie and Niko hang out, Packie may open up to Niko, and tell him that he and Gerald were molested by him. He calls his father a "sick pervert" and condemns his memory to "the seventh circle of Hell". Maureen also states that Mr. McReary is "most likely in Hell". However, unlike her sons, she appears to mourn his death, despite her LCPD database entry revealing he was violent towards her too.
Trivia[]
- A generic elderly couple portrait used in multiple interiors (including the McReary residence and Oleg Minkov's apartment), featuring two unnamed generic pedestrians, are commonly erroneously referred to as being Maureen and her unnamed husband.[1]
- In spite of his numerous crimes, he doesn't have an entry in the LCPD Database.
