The homeless disappearances
In 1990, Father Michael went to the precinct to report some strange disappearances of homeless. There he met Barry who recognized him as a friend of Jay. Despite insisting, Lt. Warren Garfield refused to start an investigation "based on rumors". Later, Father Michael organized a protest at the precinct with the homeless community that quickly escalated into a riot when one of them took a weapon. After that the riot was calmed down and that Barry took the case, Michael introduced them to two homeless witness: Sam and Charlie. The two gave some info about one of them found dead before disappearing. Later, when Barry managed to retrieve the corpse of Sam that was mutated, Michael came to thank Barry for finding a corpse and thus causing the police to start an investigation. Later, Michael and Barry were talking inside the homeless alley about how Charlie lost everything to end up on the street. Michael gave him the basic story about how it all happen and Barry agreed to help him.
