David Friedland

Mugshot

David Friedland was a successful lawyer known for supporting the little man. This suited him well when he ran for the Senate and won. However, eventually his reputation dwindled and landed him in legal trouble. Unsure of what to do, Friedland decided that he needed to start over. Wipe the slate clean. He needed to fake his death.
