## Background

Starting Life out in sunny Sydney Australia as a quirky little toddler, Casey Michaels was born in the bright year 2003 into a loving family with his Father Hunter Michaels, Mother Elizabeth Michaels and older brother Connor Micheals, born in 2001. Early on life Casey was a little late to the race missing the starting gun and learned how to speak when he was 3 and he would rattle off a lot about random things as he grew up. Casey and Connor’s cat's in the cradle relationship with their father would see their dad rarely due to his busy schedule being a pilot however when the two boys were with his father it was the time of their life as it would end with bringing your kids to work. Casey from a young age got to experience the aviation world and loved watching his dad operate goliaths such as a Jumbo Jet and Casey even once when he was 5 sat in his dad’s lap and held the yoke while the copilot went to join the mile high club.

Casey never really got to know his loving father as he passed away in a car accident while driving home from the airport. Casey along with Connor got into karting as both the boys and their late father always loved watching racing together on the TV. Casey gravitated heavily to this as it was a form of escapism from his other issues. As Casey grew into his teen years he became extremely clingy to his mother and would rely on her for most of his issues. Casey seemed to grow up around a caring mother who at the time was from America and she supported her two children by being a painter, mainly focusing on landscapes and places such as beaches and mountains.

Casey decided to give up his long life goal of maybe one day making it into professional go karting and decided to follow in his fathers footsteps and fly. When he turned 10 Casey began to learn to fly at a small airport and soon his younger brother was also lured out of his own path of karting into aviation but unlike Casey, Connor continued to kart casually. When Connor turned 14 he got his student license and could fly solo with Casey who still had to wait 2 years when he turned 14, they couldn’t leave the airspace of the local airport but they still got to enjoy a lot of freedom. They both pushed boundaries when they flew together and this led to them unfortunately hitting a boundary.

in 2016 Casey had what he calls "The Accident" where his brother was killed and Casey was permanently left disfigured as both his legs were amputated and various other issues. While trying to overcome these issues he continued to paint with his mother as she home schooled him and they made the brave decision to move to America when Casey Turned 14 as Elizabeth needed a brand new start after losing her Husband, and now Connor. She planned to return to working as a police officer like she did years before running off with that crazy Australian Pilot who she married in the late 90’s and so she moved back to Alderney State, a state town outside of Liberty City. However his stint in Alderny state was cut short when his mother passed away in 2018 and Casey was forced into foster care. This lead to him having to move from Alderney to Dukes Liberty City and felt like a husk working at an Wonderland Arcade while trying to move on as a Teenager.

He spent a year there while still dealing with high school and also working a part time job at a Wonderland Arcade and sometimes while there a nice lady would pop on though, sometimes with her wife. After a while of getting to know this lady and her wife It got to a point that they decided to take him in and adopt him when he was 17. The lady with the headband was Briella Russo and her wife was Taylor Russo. Casey Michaels…. Well Russo had been given a second chance and after a few years living with them Casey decided to make the jump and move to Los Santos to see if life there would help him move on fully and become his own person as he struggles to find out who is as a person.

## Casey's Accident

Casey doesn't tell many people about the accident he had as it is extremely personal to him, What is known is that after the accident in 2016 both of his legs had been crushed, Doctors were left with no other choice but to amputate 3 days after the accident. Casey is known as a *Bilateral Above the Knee Amputee* (missing both legs below the upper thigh) and only has 15cm [6~Inch] of upper thighs left. Due to his amputation he suffers from Phantom Limb Syndrome and also Severe Aquaphobia that causes panic attacks.

In addition to the above he also suffered spinal injuries to his C-4 and C-5 vertebrata of spine which lead to paralysis as he couldn't feel anything from the neck down for the first few months, after that he slowly regained feeling everywhere but he had to learn how to use his hands again and eventually walk. He suffered anoxic brain damage from being oxygen deprived and couldn’t talk for 4 months. When he could he had a really bad stutter and finds it difficult to pronounce L’s and R’s both as W’s.

## Life and Career within San Andreas

Since Moving to San Andreas Casey Started out becoming a part time minor for a few months until he was accepted as a PD recruit into the San Andreas Department of Corrections where he began his career in the SASP. Soon he was hired into the BCSO and began his field work as the youngest officer ever hired at the time at the age of 19 and 1 month. Upon his adoptive parents moving from Liberty City, Casey found out that his parents had divorced each other so Casey had his name changed to Casey Jenkins Russo as his mother Taylor had reverted to her maiden name. After a couple months Casey was head long into his career and had changed his name to Casey Jackson Russo as Taylor married Mia Jackson but a big moment within this era was Casey becoming a Sargent and cementing himself as a firm leader within the SASP. The biggest moment for Casey during this time was that he was only a Sargent for roughly 3 weeks as Casey made a massive career decision to transferred to the San Andreas State Troopers where he is currently serving as a Trooper today. As of 2023 Taylor and Mia divorced which lead to Casey changing his name back to just Casey Russo.
