Police Officer

"This ain't no place for you, preacher."

The **Police Officer** is a minor character that appears in FAITH: Chapter III. Although officers from the Sterling Police Department have been mentioned throughout the series, this specific one appears outside of the Abortion Clinic. A whole platoon of cops also appears near the Daycare Center as well.

## Biography

This officer specifically has a Southern-like accent as indicated by using "ain't" in his sentence. Otherwise, all the other cops in Chapter III look and sound the same; Purple outfit, yellow badge, purple cap, and a yellow emblem on their cap. All of them are equipped with a gun.

When John parks nearby the Abortion Clinic, there's a lone police officer standing outside the entrance. It's unknown why he's there, because when John tries to talk to him, he says, "This ain't no place for you, preacher.". Because he's blocking the entrance, John has to sneak into the clinic through an opening in the gates.

After avoiding Jeffrey's sight, the same officer from outside comes in, likely from all the commotion and wails from the creature from inside. He wonders what's going on and gets John off the gurney he's strapped on, saying that he will be questioned once they leave and that he needs his crowbar. When they try to leave the front door, Jeffrey smashes through a nearby window and targets John. The officer says, "What the hell is that thing?!" before shooting.

Jeffrey only targets John and cannot be banished by the crucifix. It will, however, slow it down. The strategy is to keep distance and slow down the creature while the police officer aims and shoots. It will jump out of a window and enter back in through a different one each time it gets shot. Enough times and the creature fall dead. John uses his crowbar to pry off wooden boards on the entrance door and they both leave outside.

When outside, the police officer walks towards his police car to see, what he calls "hippies", burning his car. The thralls run away, and the officer gives chase. If John decides to follow him, he's found dead in an alleyway that used to have a dead bird.

Parking outside the Daycare Center, John sees a police car speeding past him. Walking closer to the building, cops are seen surrounding the area with barricades and guns aimed at the entrance. They don't talk or recognize John standing near them. When inside the building, John can decide to open the entrance door. The cops mistaken him for holding a gun (which is actually him holding his crucifix) and opens fire, killing him. They never storm inside the Daycare Center.

### October 31st, 1987

After defeating Gary underneath the Crucible (or blocking the Crucible), Father Garcia and John exit the building. Walking out from the entrance, there's a massacre of cops and thralls. Apparently, the thralls tried to ambush the cops. Both groups were killed and there were no survivors. This is the last time we see any police officer.
