## Overview

Originally a low-level beat cop, Galtosino rose to prominence following Archie Colmyer’s take over as commissioner. He was promoted to the rank of sergeant and was introduced to Rabe Maniels and his Syndicate. Together with crooked Commissioner Archibald Colmyer, he shared a place on Rabe Maniels' payroll. He worked for Maniels as a strongarm and debt collector protecting his rackets from interference with his iron fist.

## Conflict With Officer Ran

On Colmyer's orders, Galtosino tasked his protégé Officer Ran with interviewing a family who had been given one of Rabe Maniels' DVDs. This led to Ran joining forces with the Resistance, and him becoming an enemy of Galtosino. Later that same month, Galtosino helped Rabe Maniels with a hit on The Shadow Reader by pulling his two guards BC Network and Tyler Jamison away from the hospital. He took the pair downtown, but was called away by Colmyer allowing for the pair to escape. Galtosino then accompanied Colmyer to the hospital in order to confront Officer Ran and Matthew Williams who had saved Shadow's life. During the exchange, Ran makes a very snide remark which leads to Galtosino losing his temper and breaking Ran's jaw in a fit of rage.

## Death

Months later, Galtosino replaced the recently deceased Vlad Papkov as Rabe's debt collector. He was sent to collect protection money from the Resistance at their compound in Bristol. Galtosino and a small entrogue of corrupt cops appeared at the Compound, and Galtosino once again got into an argument with Ran. During the exchange, Galtosino made his way onto the rooftops with Pierre Gringoire with the intent of killing him in order to send a message to the Resistance. Officer Ran finally had enough followed Galtosino up onto the rooftops where they got into a bloody fist fight which collimated with Ran throwing Galtosino off the rooftop to his death. With Pierre's help, the pair made it look like an accident by throwing a big Mac onto Galtosino's corpse in order to make it look like he had fallen off the roof while trying to marvel a juicy delicious big mac. Rabe Maniels was unbothered by Galtosino's demise having only used Galtosino because he was cheap dumb muscle. Colmyer later admits he thought Galtosino was an idiot telling Sam and Max: “I know boys you killed that drunk idiot Galtosino.”

## Trivia

* Joe Galtosino is built up to be Officer Ran's main antagonist. but after his death that role is fulfilled by Maranzalla.
* Officer Ran mentions several times that he had planned on marrying Galtosino one day and raising a family with him, but these plans fell through after Galtosino broke Ran's jaw which led to Ran realising that he was no longer the man he used to know.
* He became The Rabe Maniels Crime Syndicate's debt collector following the death of previous debt collector Vlad Papkov, though Galtosino remains blissfully unware of what really happened to Vlad, and believed that he had simply disappeared.
* According to Ran, Galtosino was once an honest cop who was very down to earth, but after he got promoted he showed his greedy side.
* He has an undercover lover who works in Riker's Field for the Corleone Family.
* Galtosino is shown to have an incredibly short temper as shown when he breaks Officer Ran's jaw just for making a snarky joke.
* He claimed to Officer Ran that he was collecting tribute for Maranzalla, but in reality he was collecting protection money for Rabe Maniels. It is unknown whether Galtosino and Maranzalla really knew each other, but it seems possible given Galtosino being a notoriously corrupt cop and all.
* He was described by Rabe Maniels as being dumb muscle suggesting that just like Colmyer, Rabe thought Galtosino to be useless.
