Biography[]
At some point before the events of Grand Theft Auto V Norton began working as an FIB agent and later Norton discover the whereabouts of Michael Townley an infamous bank robber Norton soon confronted Townley and made a deal with him: if he can turn in Trevor Philips into the FIB as well as faking his death in exchange for Townley letting Norton "kill" him in the upcoming heist of Ludendorff, North Yankton, as well as clearing his public image, which would advance Norton's career as he would be killing one of the most wanted man in America. Townley agrees and accepts his offer however the heist turns out to be a disaster as the trio escape with their lives things get worse when Norton shoots Brad Snider instead of Trevor, Michael takes the second bullet but Trevor survives and Brad later dies (angering Trevor). Later Norton has arranged Michael and his family to relocate to a large mansion in Rockford Hills, Los Santos under the witness protection program and assuming a new identity as: Michael De Santa.
Since Trevor survived the heist Norton poses as Brad from 2004 to 2013 (who Trevor thinks is alive) send emails to him as a way to keep track of him in reality Brad died and was buried in Michael Townley's fake grave in Ludendorff Cemetery to clear Michael's public image.
Nine years later after Michael and his new partner in crime Franklin Clinton rob a jewelry store in Rockford Hills, Norton appears at his mansion upset with his action warning that his actions will attract Trevor, which eventually does occur. From this point, Dave, pressured by Steve, forces Michael, Franklin and Trevor to perform various dirty jobs for the FIB to secure funding.
Fates[]
Something Sensible[]
After Trevor is killed, Haines reveals Dave is close to discharge without pension.
The Time's Come[]
Dave informs Trevor that he was the one sending those "Brad" emails, and cuts all ties with him.
The Third Way[]
As Michael, Trevor and Franklin walk away from the onslaught, Michael suggests killing their enemies so they would not bother them in the future. Trevor names Dave for killing Brad and nearly himself, but Michael puts it off, as Dave was pressured into compliance by Haines, and they needed someone to clear their backs when they're done. After Haines' death, Dave checks on Michael, mentioning himself as the new host for The Underbelly of Paradise. He also clarifies to Trevor he sent all the "Brad" emails. Either way, he wishes Michael luck, and hopes to never cross paths with the two men ever again.
