Background[]
Law & Order: Organized Crime[]
After Vincent and Dominic Russo ordered Kenny Kyle to murder Henry Cole with poisonous rats, Kenny escaped from the hospital to receive his money from Vincent and Russo at Teddy Silas' club. Kenny follows Russo to get the money but Kenny ends up assaulting Detective Jamie Whelan before fleeing the nightclub to avoid arrest.
When Kenny became the focus of the Organized Crime Control Bureau's investigation, Detective Elliot Stabler and Sergeant Ayanna Bell approached Vincent, Teddy, and Pearl Serrano. Stabler questioned the trio about their involvement with Kenny. However, Vincent denied knowing Kenny but came under pressure. While Kenny was on the loose, Vincent hired Russo and another hitman to murder Kenny at Dede Hayes' home. Dede went into the other room while Kenny shot Russo and the hitman. Russo managed to escape Dede's home while Kenny strangled Dede to death.
After Kenny was arrested, Vincent started hiring unskilled workers to work at the construction site, which resulted in a construction worker becoming seriously injured. However, Pearl fired Vincent without Teddy's permission and replaced him with Ike Crawford. Vincent put out a hit on Kenny with Russo's help. When Kenny ended up getting defended by Reyes, Vincent and Russo attempted to arrange another hit on Kenny.
When Kenny spoke with Stabler, Kenny revealed that Russo ordered him to murder Henry. Stabler and Whelan then tracked down Russo and chased after him. When Russo came to a dead end, Stabler ordered him to get out of the car. Russo got out of the car but pulled a gun on the police and Stabler ended up shooting him. After Russo's death, Teddy and Pearl revealed to Stabler that Vincent was responsible for all the crimes at the construction site, including Henry's murder.
While Vincent was watching the news report on Russo's death, Stabler and Whelan approached him at his home to arrest him. Vincent grabbed his gun from a drawer and kissed his wife and children. When Vincent opened the door for Stabler and Whelan, Vincent asked them to give him a minute while he tells his wife what was going on. Vincent then shut the door before running up to the bathroom.
Stabler and Whelan realize what Vincent is about to do, and ran after him. Vincent then locked himself in the bathroom and Stabler tried to get him to talk to them. Vincent said that he can't speak to them about anything. Stabler tries to talk him out of committing suicide but Vincent ends up shooting himself in the head. Stabler then breaks down the door and finds Vincent's dead body in the bathtub. His wife then saw Vincent's body and broke down in tears while Whelan took Vincent's children away from the scene.
