## Biography

Ashely Butler was born in 1981 in Jersey City, New Jersey, and during her childhood, Butler grew up alongside several future members of The Lost MC such as Johnny Klebitz. After joining the lost, Butler became Johnny's girlfriend and also became heavily addicted to Methamphetamine and cocaine. After awhile, Butler's drug use and infidelity to him led to Johnny breaking up with her, which worsened her addiction.

In 2008, Butler was held up in a drug dealer's house, as she had no been able to provide payment for the drugs she wanted. This led to Klebbitz saving her from the house, and shortly afterwards, she began a relationship with Ray Boccino, a capo in the Pegorino Crime Family. Boccino used this relationship to his advantage, convincing her to use The Lost MC to steal seveal diamonds which originally belonged to Ray Bulgarin. She also borrowed money from the Russian Mafia to pay for her habit. This put her in debt to Dimitri Rascalov, and Johnny and Malc Johnson are forced to kidnap Roman Bellic to settle the matter. Eventually, Boccino arranged a diamond deal with the Roth Crime Family, hoping to make a large sum of money off of the diamonds he had stolen. The deal was ambushed by Luis Lopez, resulting in a massive shootout in the museum the deal was taking place in. During the deal, Johnny took the money originally meant for the Roth's for himself and The Lost. Butler informed Ray of the deal going wrong and the money having been taken by Klebitz and given to Jim Fitzgerald for safekeeping. This resulted in the kidnapping and torture of Fitzgerald, as well as Klebitz who they lured to the restaurant owned by Boccino. The two managed to escape the restaurant where they parted ways, with Fitzgerald later getting shot to death by Niko Bellic. Butler later met up with Klebitz at The Lost's clubhouse and informed him of Fitzgerald's death and that former Lost president, Billy Grey was turning states, pinning a drug trafficking ring on The Lost.

At some point after the end of the 2008 civil war, which ended with the death of Billy Grey during a prison raid by The Lost, Butler contacted Klebitz several times, going to rehab for a short time before being kicked out of rehab and asking Klebitz for money.

#### Move To California & Death

At some point in the late 2000s or early 2010s, Butler, Klebitz, Terry Thorpe, Clay Simons and several other members of The Lost moved to southern California where they set up a new base of operations. Butler and the gang were heavily involved in drug trafficking and arms dealing in the area. During this time, Butler and Klebitz got back together, as he had also become heavily addicted to Methamphetamine like Butler. At some point in 2013, Butler began a sexual relationship with Trevor Philips, who himself had been actively conducting actions against The Lost with the use of Dom McGuire and his associates. That year, Klebitz confronted Philips about his relationship with Butler outside his house. The men yelled at each other for several minutes before Philips beat Klebitz to death, with him deciding to murder Thorpe, Simmons and several other members in a shootout in the Stab City trailer park. Several weeks following the death of Klebitz, Thorpe, and Simmons, Butler was found dead in a hotel room in Paleto Bay, California, alongside the corpses of four local men in their 50s and 80s after neighbors complained of a terrible smell.
