Joe is a character appearing as astranger/freak inGrand Theft Auto V.
He is voiced byJay Potter.
History[]
Background[]
Joe was one of the members of theCivil Border Patrol, who, alongside his best friendJosef, aRussian immigrant obsessed with America, hunts "illegal immigrants" in order to deport them back to their home countries. However, most of the time the "illegals" they pursue are naturalized US citizens of mainly Hispanic origin. The two even disregard the papers confirming their legal status.
He reveals in the missionAn American Welcome that he actually works as aPark Ranger, and that he only pursues "illegal immigrants" in his spare time. InMinute Man Blues, It is likely that the SASPR fired Joe due to his illegal activities, and as a result Joe and Josef had theirPark Ranger andtasers confiscated. This is hinted by the fact that Manuel stated that he was going to report them, and in their confrontation with Trevor, their Park Ranger is nowhere to be seen and they're using lethal weapons, such as theSawn-off Shotgun.
He also reveals that he has a brother who has three children and used to be gay until their parents "set him straight".
Events ofGrand Theft Auto V[]
During their missions, Joe and Josef employTrevor Philips twice to help them hunt down supposed "illegal aliens". Trevor, aCanadian immigrant himself, dislikes the duo, but assists them because of the monetary reward.
After his second outing with the duo, Trevor re-encountersManuel, one of the men arrested during his second tour with the Patrol, who is a legal United States citizen as his ancestors have lived inSan Andreas for over 200 years, well before it was incorporated into the United States. Manuel reprimands Trevor for his actions, as it further encouraged and emboldened CBP's racist activities. In a regretful fit of rage, Trevor tracks down Joe and Josef to a nearbyfarm and attacks them. After Josef is killed, Joe tries to escape in aFieldmaster, but Trevor stops him and kills him as well.
