# What is the backstory of your character?
#### Stephen Angelo was born in 1989 and joined the SAHP in 2019. In the following years he became such a highly decorated and high-ranked SAHP officer to the point that he was given leadership of his own SAHP Division and became the handler and boss of several well-known SAHP officers, including Dmac and DarkGaurd. In 2019, Angelo was chosen to become the host of a new criminal reality TV show called the Underbelly of Paradise. As host of the show, Angelo (and his camera crew) regularly make reports on gang activity and the overall criminal underworld of Los Santos which is divided between rival criminal gangs. Angelo would then become a celebrity, thanks to the success of the programme.

However, despite the decorations from the Bureau, leading his own unit, and becoming famous as the host of the "Underbelly Of Paradise" show, by 2019 Angelo and his right-hand man Dmac were infamously corrupt. Haines in particular, was known to be on the payroll of several wealthy and powerful people, including eccentric billionaire D. Svensson, whom Angelo considers a "close friend."
