Loretta (LEGO Criminals)

Loretta is the main protagonist of the Lego Criminals Series. He is a crime boss, revolutionary, criminal, and a former prison inmate.

Appearance:
Loretta, although for most of his appearances out of jail, wears a prison uniform with a black leather jacket over it, along with gray pants, a belt, and matching leather gloves. For his first appearance in Lego Criminals, he doesn't wear any sort of head covering, but it ultimately changes in Parts 2-4 where he wears a black hat. When he makes his return in Lego City 2, he doesn't have a hat, most likely due to losing it on his 2 months stranded on the island. Loretta has a stubble, a rather angry face, and tiny piggy eyes.

Biography:
Loretta's past is incredibly unknown, but it can be inferred he picked up crime in his younger days. Thomas Preisdent, then the head judge, sentenced Loretta to 15 years in prison at a unknown time.

Lego Criminals Series
In his first known appearance, Loretta simply introduces his group of criminals and tries to think up ideas for their next crime. This video clip most likely happens during 2069-2072, which makes Loretta about 45 years of age. Police Officers end up finding the hiding place and barge in.

In Lego Criminals 2, Loretta gathers up his remaining friends and tells them of his next brilliant idea, robbing Bob Wachowski's (the richest person in Lego City) house. They don't agree with the idea, and remind him of all the time Loretta's ideas haven't worked out, flashback to the aftermath of Lego Criminals 1. Loretta then tells them that if the plan does succeed, he'll keep all the money for himself if they don't join, which makes his friends cave in. A couple of hours later, they arrive at Bob's house, where Loretta tells Max to walk up and see if the house is booby-trapped first. It is, and Max is flung into the sky. Loretta looks for his associates, but they've already gotten into a boat to escape, which leaves Loretta entirely alone. In Lego Criminals 3, Loretta is questioned by the police officer James Bruh, but after refusing to give answers, James is allowed to shoot him to death. Loretta manages to turn the tables, and after a brief fight, with a bullet entering his arm, he manages to kill Officer Bruh, and escapes.

In the 4th and last part of the series, Loretta escapes by killing one of the police guards and forcing the other 2 to drop their guns if they don't want to die. He exits the Police Station and is able to find a truck. He convinces the truck owner to give it to him, and Loretta is free again. While driving away, a mysterious man follows him.

Lego City Series
In Lego City 2: The Rise of President, several months after the events of the last episode, Loretta is now stranded on a remote island with no way of communicating with anyone else. However, his luck changes when the survivors of the City's Prison Outbreak end up meeting him. Loretta asks for updates about what has happened during his long absence, and Vulture replies that the Mayor has been replaced with a new corrupt and highly authoritarian leader after her assassination. Sensing a opportunity to overthrow a unpopular government, Loretta devises a plan to take over the city.

In the next episode of the series, still stranded on the island, Loretta see's a boat appear in the distance, and begins to fret over how the authorities could have found them. However, he quickly realizes that Kenny Alvarez, a member of his gang, snitched on them in return for his freedom. Fuming and betrayed, Loretta grabs his gun and fatally shoots Kenny. When the police woman arrives (who was assigned by the Mayor on a solo mission as punishment for failing a mission), she tries to talk some sense into him, but ultimately fails. She is killed after a brief fight with him. Loretta informs the remaining group members that his plan is ready to take place

In Lego City 4: Attack of the Lake, Loretta and 2 of his most trusted associated invade the City with the boat that the police woman in the previous episode had used. Bill and a couple other officers have already blocked off the area, and attempt to force the citizens out of the bay, but it's a futile effort. Loretta arrives with weapons, and after Bill taunts Loretta for his foolishness, he is shot dead and chaos breaks loose. After 5 more people have been killed, Loretta is taken into custody.

In the next part, Thomas Preisdent, the new Mayor of the City, personally interrogates Loretta, asking what the point of his plan is and why he's doing these attacks. Loretta replies that Thomas is worse than him, and explains that his policy's and personal vendetta's are creating a horrible and problematic environment for the citizens. Furious at what Loretta has told him, he send him back to prison. It is revealed the only reason Preisdent has not executed Loretta already is because he knows information that may be useful for him.

Back at the prison, Vulture successfully starts a argument between himself and one of the officers, which leads to a bullet breaking their chains, which causes them all to escape. A fleeing cop is then taken hostage.
