Charlie Baker was a spree killer, rapist, and kidnapper.

History[]

Charlie was a violent sociopath who manipulated his brother Billy.

Earlier in life, he had raped Billy during an intended threesome with Charlie's girlfriend, and would beat his father every day to silence him after he walked in on the act and insulted Charlie. His girlfriend soon broke up with him after finding him to be violent and disgusting.

Much later, Charlie developed a strong hatred towards rich people after being beaten and left with a limp and so manipulated his brother Billy into killing seven people in a span of two days. Then, he personally killed four people and abducted two women, intending to frame Billy for those crimes. During his killing spree, he had the couples rape and sodomize each other before having Billy kill them by shooting them with a .380 pistol.

After Billy was arrested, Charlie and Al visit him at the precinct before Charlie asked to speak with Billy. Charlie subtly tells his brother not to talk about the murders, while secretly setting him up. Eventually SVU find out that Billy had a partner who walks with a limp and realized it was Charlie. Al is brought in and tells the detectives where to find Charlie, leading to his arrest.

When arrested he makes it no secret that he committed the murders but does not tell the detectives where to find the two kidnapped women this is until Al and Billy come into the room. Once Billy learned of Charlie's deception with help from his father and the detectives, he turned on Charlie who tried to attack his brother only to be held back. Charlie watch in fury as Billy disclosed the locations of the two kidnapped women, leading to them being rescued.

Charlie was executed for the murders whilst Billy was sentenced to life imprisonment with the possibility of parole for his participation.
