~ Redd White to Mia Fey before killing her. |
Redd White is the main antagonist of the second chapter of Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney.
He is the CEO of Bluecorp, which is a company that gathers various information on people to which he uses to blackmail them. When defense attorney Mia Fey investigates him, White murders her to prevent her from exposing his crimes.
What Makes Him Pure Evil?[]
- After bribing Marvin Grossberg for information about the DL-6 case and learning that the police were using a spirit medium named Misty Fey to solve it, he leaked that info to the press, causing the police and Misty Fey to be humiliated, and causing the Fey Clan to have their reputation ruined.
- He blackmailed hundreds of famous people to use for his benefit, with some of his blackmail victims even committing suicide because of it, and while the exact amount of people who have committed suicide is unclear, the suicide folder in Mia’s office is stated to be the largest, which shows that he drove a large amount of people to suicide.
- One of his blackmailing victims was Marvin, who he forced to do whatever he wanted under the threat of him being turned into the police for his role in the info being leaked, causing him to suffer for the next 15 years.
- While the suicides were off-screen, they still have enough of an onscreen impact since the plot happened due to the fact that people were being blackmailed, Phoenix came across several newspaper articles based on the suicides White caused, Phoenix used one of the articles as evidence against White at the end of the second investigation, and Phoenix used a list of all the people White blackmailed to corner him.
- He killed Mia to steal the evidence she gathered on him and framed her younger sister Maya for it.
- When Phoenix became suspicious of him, White punched him and flaunted in his face that Phoenix can’t charge him with assault, and when Phoenix accused him of murdering Mia, he had Phoenix arrested and tried to send a very incompetent lawyer to represent Phoenix in order to ensure he has no case.
- He doesn't care for his secretary, April May, since he had no problem with throwing her under the bus over the wiretapping incident to save his own skin.
- While he confessed to Mia's murder, it was only because he was afraid of what would happen to him had the list of the people he blackmailed been released to the press.
- While he has some comedic moments such as his tendency to make up fancy words and the gag with Edgeworth not getting his name, they just show how much of a pretentious jerk he is.
- Despite the high heinous standard of Ace Attorney, White stands out for causing a large number of suicides, which is really awful for the series as while people have caused suicides before, no one has done it on the scale of White.
Trivia[]
- His anime adaptation is not Pure Evil, as the anime omits his crimes causing individuals to commit suicide, leaving him to fail the heinous standard.
