Al Baker is a maintenance man at his apartment complex and the father of brothers Billy and Charlie Baker.
History[]
Al would get wounds often and blame it on his job and drinking, but the truth was Charlie beat him regularly. It started when Al walked in on a threesome between the brothers and Charlie's girlfriend Maria Douglas, which turned into Charlie raping Billy. Al pulled Charlie off and called him a "faggot", leading to Charlie beating all and threatening the lives of everyone in the room. Al started to drink more and suffered post-traumatic stress as a result of the beatings.
When the brothers committed a series of spree killings, notable in the victims being forced to rape each other, Billy was arrested first. Al didn't believe Billy was capable alone, and after hearing the detectives spoke with Maria and heard her account, Al confirmed the rape and Charlie hitting him every day. Al sold Charlie out and got him arrested, encouraging Billy to testify against Charlie and apologizing for not saving Billy when Al had the chance. Billy turned on Charlie and confessed to all the killings, as well as revealed where two women were being held hostage. (SVU: "Dominance")
