Biography[]
Adrian Pryce pays Chaney to kidnap Joe Doucett and imprison him for 20 years. 20 years later, he releases Joe at Pryce's order and continues watching the prisoners. However, Joe finds Chaney and holds him hostage, torturing him by cutting his neck and pouring salt on the wound. Finally, Chaney confesses that he was paid to imprison Joe, but does not know his client's name. When Chaney's guard appear, Joe uses him as a human shield to escape.
Later on, Pryce gives Chaney the address of Joe's lover Marie, and Chaney sends his men to kidnap her. When Joe tries to save Marie, Chaney prepares to torture him with a straight razor, but Adrian calls him and tells him to let Joe go, offering a bag of moneys as payment, which Chaney accepts.
After Adrian's death, Joe - who has learned that Marie is in fact his daughter - visits Chaney and pays him to lock him up once again as punishment for having committed incest.
