Charles was raised in “a very poor and very violent household”. He spent most of his childhood afraid and joined the police to help stop that happening for other families. When he is not working, he spends as much time as he can in his garden. He says his surname is “as in, but not related to” Richard. In November 2020, he suffered a stroke and decided to retire. He likes fishing and plans to do more in retirement. He currently lives in Fremantle with his wife, and later, their daughter Nichola.
=== Career History ===
Spent time with both the Tactical Response Group and the Air Wing (until his stroke and subsequent retirement, he maintained a recreational pilot’s licence).
