Realistic Steak Cult Posted September 17, 2013 Share Posted September 17, 2013 I know we found this long time before, but I just post it again if someone missed it: Michael's first surname is based on real character, who is in WPP. Michael Vernon Townley (born December 5, 1942 in Waterloo, Iowa) is a United States citizen currently living in the U.S. under terms of the federal witness protection program. A Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) agent and operative of the Chilean secret police, DINA, Townley confessed, was convicted, and served 62 months in prison in the United States for the 1976 Washington, D.C., assassination of Orlando Letelier, former Chilean ambassador to the United States. As part of his plea bargain, Townley received immunity from further prosecution and was therefore not extradited to Argentina to stand trial for the assassination of Chilean general Carlos Prats and his wife. Townley has also been convicted (1993), in absentia, by an Italian court for carrying out the 1975 Rome murder attempt on Bernardo Leighton. Townley worked in producing chemical weapons for Chilean dictator General Pinochet's use against political opponents along with ColonelGerardo Huber[3] and the DINA biochemist Eugenio Berríos According to Google, this guy is really famous. So I am assuming that Rockstar was researching famous WPP persons when deciding about Michael's name. And then there is second Michael Townley, who was politician in Australia. Interesting right?
