Terrence "Terry" Higgins is the main antagonist of the 2005 video game True Crime: New York City. He is a crooked 3rd Grade P.D.N.Y. detective and mentor of Marcus Reed, the game's protagonist/anti-hero.
He is voiced by actor Mickey Rourke, who also voiced Charles Jericho in Driv3r, and portrayed Whiplash in Iron Man 2.
History[]
Terry Higgins was born in Manhattan, New York City on July 11, 1951. He has been a member of the P.D.N.Y. for over twenty years and has made friends within and outside the law, especially drug lord and childhood friend Isaiah Reed and got to know his son, Marcus. Though the two were on opposite sides of the law, their friendship continued over the years and when Reed, Sr. was imprisoned, he had promised to look after his son. He ushered Marcus into the police force after covering up his mass murder of traitorous gang members.
After Terrence was "killed" while bringing evidence of departmental corruption to the FBI, Marcus vowed to avenge his mentor's death and refused to let anything stand in his way. Marcus then investigated four major crime organizations in New York City: the Magdalena Cartel, the Palermo Mob, the President's Club, and the Shadow Tong, leading him to believe Chief Victor Navarro is the alleged mole.
In the end, it was revealed Terry faked his own death to escape the feds shaking him down for more information and to avoid being exposed as a dirty cop. It is then revealed he was the one who had orchestrated the events of the whole game involving the major city gangs and crime syndicates, leading to Navarro's arrest. In the canon (good) ending Following a climatic showdown on a subway train, Marcus shoots Terry dead who says "motherfuckers with no loyalty don't deserve to live".
