Oswald Danes was a convicted murderer, rapist and pedophile, and also a former teacher.
Biography
In 2006, he raped and murdered twelve-year-old Susie Cabina. When taken into police custody he stated that she should have run faster. He was sentenced to death, and exectued by lethal injection. However, he survived his execution since it occurred on Miracle Day. Because his sentence was technically carried out, his lawyers successfully advanced a Force majeure argument, apparently flavoured with Fifth and Eighth Amendment implications, which induced the reluctant Governor of Kentucky to parole him. (TW: The New World)
He thereafter made an appearance on WWCN in which he broke down and cried, apologising profusely for his crimes. This started to shift opinion in his favour — opinion which had been solidly against him when he departed Montrose Hill State Penitentiary. Public relations guru Jilly Kitzinger thereafter offered her services to him, but he declined, saying that he didn't need representation. (TW: Rendition)
After being beaten by two police officers, Oswald decided to accept Jilly's offer, and attended a meeting at PhiCorp. He agreed to promote giving PhiCorp the power to sell drugs to people without prescriptions, and PhiCorp offered him body guards. Captain Jack Harkness then broke into the studio where Oswald was going to appear on teleision, and Oswald admitted that the murder and rape of Susie Cabina was the best moment of his life. Jack then inferred that Oswald wanted to be executed, and Oswald had his body guards repeatedly punch Jack in the stomach, and escort him out of the building. Once out on the street a woman approached Jack and asked if he'd seen or touched Oswald, almost infering that he was some kind of deity, Oswald then addressed the nation promising them new drugs laws and stated that this is a new era for mankind, before asking them just one thing, "Walk with me."(TW: Dead of Night)
