Michael and Bug’s mother Raylene is a drug addict, and Michael avoids any adult interest in his home life because of his precarious family situation. It is strongly implied that he was sexually abused by Bug’s father Devar, who is returning from prison.

Quick Facts

Avon is forced to give up Stringer to appease Mouzone and maintain his business contact.

This finally gives MCU enough evidence to make a move against Stringer. Stringer at first tries desperately bargaining for his life, but when Omar reveals that he and Mouzone are after him for personal reasons, and that Avon has betrayed him, he sombrely resigns to his fate and is shot to death by Omar and Mouzone.

Near the end of the third season (and in one of the show’s most shocking moments), Stringer gets murdered by Omar and Brother Mouzone.

Idris Elba and his character of Stringer bell in one of the most acclaimed TV shows of all-time, ‘The Wire’, was loved by all but the decision of removing him from the show did result in some off-screen drama.

Bodie felt that Marlo was violating the rules of the drug trade, yet he was unaware of Little Kevin’s betrayal of Lex. Bodie was seen getting into McNulty’s car by Monk, one of Marlo’s lieutenants, who later relayed this information to Marlo, who swiftly ordered his death.

asked: You tagged Bodie’s death with “Michael Lee.” Just so you know, Michael doesn’t kill Bodie. Chris states at some point that Michael’s “first time” should be someone he doesn’t know (which is why he shoots a nameless dealer later). Bodie’s killer is another Chris and Snoop protegee named O-Dog.

Stringer arrived with three Barksdale enforcers Marquis “Bird” Hilton, Roland “Wee-Bey” Brice and Anton “Stinkum” Artis. Brandon was captured by Bell’s crew, tortured, and killed, his body displayed in the low rise projects as a warning to Omar on Avon’s instructions.

On the WB teen drama, Bodie disappeared after the Season 6 episode “Merry Mayhem,” during which fans glimpsed the chef sitting with Bessie at a Christmas dinner.
