According to the popular lore, Riley was subjected to a lot of trauma as a child before he decided to join the military. Even while in the military, he was once captured by members of a prominent drug cartel and tortured heavily. After escaping, Riley took a lot of time to recover from the experience. Eventually, he ended the drug cartel and its leader’s existence. Afterward, he joined Task Force 141 as the Ghost.
