Mr. McReary is a deceased character in Grand Theft Auto IV.
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 datase entry revealing he was violent towards her too.
Trivia[]
- In spite of his numerous crimes, he doesn't have an entry in the LCPD Database.
- During the mission Harboring a Grudge, a picture of Mr. McReary appears in a portrait above Maureen McReary's fireplace.
- The portrait also appears in Oleg Minkov's apartment during the mission Wrong is Right. This is because in the files, the model fireplace is attached to the picture frame, so when used in Oleg's apartment, the picture went with it.
