* FauxAffablyEvil: Part of what makes him such a SmugSnake.
* {{Jerkass}}: He's just a sadistic prick.
* ManipulativeBastard: Not that it's difficult to manipulate poor Dewey Crowe.

->'''Played By:''' Joseph Mazzello

-->'''Josiah:'''Now I just sit out in the sun, warm my belly like an old dog.

* AnArmAndALeg: His foot is sawn off.

* NotSoHarmlessVillain: Raylan dismisses him as a grumpy old criminal who doesn't have the bravery or strength to be a threat, but doesn't account for Josiah's talent for deceit. As a result, he ends up captured by hill people and is almost killed by them...along with Boyd, who Josiah previously tricked in the exact same way.

* DumbBlonde: Roz isn't the brightest star in the sky. Her petty crimes are half-assed and she tends to incriminate herself when she doesn't shut up.

[[caption-width-right:350:''"Unlike the rest of these sorry souls around here, we're not afraid of you."'']]

* IWasQuiteALooker: Eve says she used to look like Ava Gardner. Subverted, since as Raylan points out, she's still beautiful.
* MaybeMagicMaybeMundane: Her supposed psychic abilities. She does have plenty of fraud cases against her, but she does make accurate predictions.

* DumbBlonde: Roz isn't a complete moron, but she's certainly below average.
* FilleFatale: She's not legal, and uses her sexuality in a clumsy way to get what she wants.

* StupidCrooks: Roz isn't the brightest star in the sky. Her petty crimes are half-assed and she tends to incriminate herself when she doesn't shut up.

[[folder:Allison]]
!!Allison Brander
[[quoteright:350:http://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/brander_allison_748.jpg]]
->'''Played By:''' Amy Smart

Loretta [=MacCready's=] newest social worker and a TemporaryLoveInterest for Raylan.

* ArmorPiercingQuestion: Sets up a plethora of those to Raylan, questioning the origins of his bravado and being thoroughly unimpressed with his antics.
* DrugsAreBad: Has a marijuana habit that prevents her from going to the police when Danny runs her off the road.
* DrunkDriver: She drove stoned in "Kill the Messenger", preventing her from going to the police for help when Danny Crowe runs her off the road.
* DumbBlonde: She drives stoned, does not understand how to handle the Crowes, taunts Raylan about the possibility that she might be a criminal, and generally does everything she can to make herself look like an idiot.
* ExpectingSomeoneTaller: She'd seen Raylan's photo in the paper, and said he looked 'taller'.
* FramingTheGuiltyParty: May have planted meth on drug dealer Henry in order to separate him from his son.
* {{Hypocrite}}: Planted drugs in a dealer's home in order to take his son away. Later gets mad at Raylan for using her office to take Kendal away from Daryl and Danny who were both abusive of him ''and'' using him to tend bar at a whorehouse.
* InformedAbility: Supposedly very good at her job, but never demonstrates it. She acts like Loretta just needs some guidance (when she's already a major league criminal), and demonstrates utter terror when dealing with Daryl and Danny--something you'd think an experienced social worker could avoid. She also likely planted drugs on a man who ''wasn't'' abusing his son, but later convinces Kendal that he has to stay with his brothers who ''are'' abusing him.
* {{Jerkass}}: With pretty much every episode featuring her, another bad habit of Allison's has been exposed--starting with her holier than thou attitude, then her hypocrisy, then her drug abuse, and now the fact that she drives while under the influence. As Rachel notes, "she just gets better and better."
* JerkassHasAPoint: Her criticism of Raylan is often valid. For example, she tells Raylan that many of his problems are of his own making in "Kill the Messenger".
-->'''Allison:''' I can tell you’re a man who would run into a burning building without batting the eye. Thing is, I think you’re the one setting the fire.
* LoveInterest: Another in a long line of broken blonde women who fall for Raylan.
* SmugSnake: A non-villainous example. Allison's holier-than-thou routine becomes increasingly smug and hard to take as all her own flaws are exposed.
* SuspiciouslySimilarSubstitute: For Winona. Possibly a case in-universe, given that Raylan most definitely has a type.
* TooDumbToLive: She drives under the influence, totally mishandles the situation with the Crowes, and then compounds her errors by sending Kendal back to them when he tries to run away. It's not so much any one thing she does that marks her out as terminally stupid, as it is the long string of bad decisions.
* WellIntentionedExtremist: She has shades of this. It's strongly implied that she planted drugs on an criminal so that the law would have an excuse to take his son away.

[[folder:Cassie]]
!!Cassie St. Cyr
[[quoteright:350:http://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/St__Cyr_Cassandra_9378.jpg]]
->'''Played By:''' Lindsay Pulsipher

The seemingly submissive sister of outspoken tent preacher Billy St. Cyr. She arrives in Harlan County along with Billy to set up shop and build a congregation -- a start-up that quickly draws the attention of criminal Boyd Crowder among others. She is stronger than she looks and, in fact, serves as the brains behind her brother's salvation operation.

* BrotherSisterTeam: With Billy.
* TheConfidant: After Billy's death, she becomes one to Ellen May.
* HeelFaithTurn: She was never truly a villain except in a loose HeroAntagonist sense, but she was certainly more concerned with money than good works until Billy's death. She subsequently makes Billy proud, becoming more sincere in her belief rather than just a money-grabber.
* NotSoDifferent: From Boyd, initially. Both use religion as a tool, while still being genuine in their belief. However, whereas tragedy caused Boyd to lose his faith, Cassie's faith was strengthened.
* OnlyInItForTheMoney: Implied, but after Billy's death she seems more sincere and mild.
* PrayerOfMalice: She admits to Tim that she has been praying for Boyd to be shot.
* SpannerInTheWorks: She gives the tip about Delroy's body, after Ellen May tells her, to the staties in the Season 4 finale, which allows the Clover Hillers to have Ava arrested.
* TalkerAndDoer: She's the doer to Billy's talker, handling the practical (read: monetary) aspects of the St. Cyr ministry.

->'''Played By:''' Brad Leland

A real estate agent who works alongside Ty Walker in his scheme to acquire various properties around Harlan.

* AccidentalMurder: [[spoiler:When trying to torture him, the dim-witted Choo-Choo hits him far too hard, killing him instantly.]]
* CharacterDeath: [[spoiler:Poor old Calhoun is accidentally killed by Choo-Choo with one of those hard and fast punches.]]
* DirtyOldMan: Calhoun frequently employs a young woman who may be a prostitute or just a gold-digging secretary. However, no matter the nature of their relationship, they do seem to get along quite well.
* ScyllaAndCharybdis: He winds up trapped between the U.S. Marhals, Markham's goons and Boyd Crowder.
* SmarterThanYouLook: Calhoun seems like a hapless fool, but he shows himself to be a little smarter than he first appears when he very cleverly tells Raylan and Tim about the murders of Betty and John-O.

->'''Played By:''' Rebecca Creskoff

The unpopular Vice President of the Black Pike Mining Company. She comes to town to clear up legal issues and make a deal with the Bennetts.

* {{Badass}}: She almost breaks the wrist of a handsy drunk at Mags' party.
* CorruptCorporateExecutive: How most of the people in Harlan County see her.
* DistractedByTheSexy: Raylan is very distracted when she changes in front of him.
* FieryRedhead: She can get very passionate.
* [[MouthOfSauron Mouth Of Black Pike]]: She's the only representation of the much-loathed Black Pike Mining Company.
* MsFanservice: Her attempts to seduce Raylan are pretty blatant, such as walking in front of him with her robe open. Much is also made of her ass, which admittedly is impressive.
* OutGambitted: She really should not have tried to use Boyd Crowder against the Bennetts when she did not even realize what the real stakes were.
* PunchClockVillain: She has no ill will towards the residents of Harlan County but it is her job to make sure that the mining company gets the land it needs to start a new mine. She does not think it her concern that the mine will pollute the area and that an activist died documenting this. When all the deals are closed she will simply go where the company sends her and do it all over again.
* PutOnABus: Discussed. She goes where the job is, and when it comes to Harlan County, she's just passing through.
* SmugSnake: She can certainly come across this, being OutGambitted by Boyd and Mags because she assumed she was naturally more savvy than them.
* SoreLoser: She's very unhappy when Mags gets the better of her. She refuses to shake hands with Mags and gets quite snippy before retiring for a hard drink.

[[folder:Billy]]
!!Billy St. Cyr
[[quoteright:350:http://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/BillyStCyr_1696.jpg]]
[[caption-width-right:350:''"Y'all come to watch the hillbilly with the snakes? Or did you come to be saved?"'']]
->'''Played By:''' Joseph Mazzello

A popular preacher who arrives in Harlan County selling salvation through his appropriately named Last Chance Salvation church (a tent). He appears to be completely genuine in his concern for the local residents, many of whom are current or former drug users who are the primary target market for Boyd Crowder's products.

* AsTheGoodBookSays: He has [[http://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Mark%2016:17-18&version=NIV Mark 16:17-18]] written on a banner in the front of his church-tent.
* BrotherSisterIncest: Averted, but Boyd crudely accuses Cassie of this when he sees her leaving Billy's room. It turns out, she just sings him to sleep.
* BrotherSisterTeam: With Cassie.
* CharacterDeath: Boyd goads him into a real test of faith, and Billy handles a snake with real venom. It bites him, and Billy dies moments later.
* CoolPet: Mabel, his poisonous snake. He handles Mabel in public as a demonstration of faith and has survived her bites.
* DrugsAreBad: Several of his converts are former addicts who have renounced drugs because of his influence. Boyd takes notice of him when his Oxycontin sales drop as a result.
* GoodShepherd: At first, Billy can initially appear as a probable SinisterMinister due to his enmity with Boyd, silver tongue and the snake motifs around him. But Billy does believe in what he's saying and has a genuine desire to help others and spread God's word. He's spot-on when he talks to Ellen May about Boyd's people 'shaming' her out of greed and fear.
* HonorBeforeReason: He repeatedly locks horns with Boyd, even though this puts him and his sister in danger. When Boyd accuses him of preaching to make money, he tells his congregation that Last Chance Salvation Church will no longer accept monetary donations (much to Cassie's chagrin). Finally, he picks up an un-milked rattlesnake to demonstrate his faith to Boyd and the congregation, only to receive a fatal bite.
* KillTheCutie: Outside of the Marshals, Billy was one of the few unambiguously good characters in the show, helping addicts quit drugs, encouraging Ellen May to exit prostitution, and offering spiritual nourishment to his flock. When Boyd pressures him into picking up the unmilked snake that kills him, it's a tragedy.
* LikeFatherLikeSon: Billy is a snake-handler like his late father. He dies by snake bite like his father too.
* MeaningfulName: St. Cyr sounds like 'sincere.' Seems to be played straight for both St. Cyr siblings, thus far.
* PreacherMan: For Last Chance Salvation.
* {{Pride}}: His downfall. Pride leads him to pick up the poisonous snake that Boyd brings to his church, which promptly bites him.
* RousingSpeech: Being a preacher, it's practically his job.
* TalkerAndDoer: Billy handles the preaching for the Last Chance Salvation Church, while his sister handles the behind-the-scenes, practical responsibilities of the ministry.

->'''Played By:''' Mickey Jones

A well-respected marijuana kingpin from Memphis, Tennessee, and a longtime associate of the Bennett family, Rodney "Hot-Rod" Dunham, is a meticulously careful criminal with a lengthy career behind him. Over the decades his partners have included Bo Crowder, Arlo Givens, and Mags Bennett's unseen husband, all of whom he seems to have been on friendly terms with.

-->'''Lindsey:''' I knew you were going through something. To tell you the truth, I feel a little bad taking advantage of you.

-->'''Lindsey:''' I mean, not so bad that I don't plan to do it again.

The bartender at The High Note Bar, where U.S. Deputy Marshal Raylan Givens is a frequent guest because he lives in a rented room upstairs. The pair have a unmistakable romantic energy and often engage in charged banter.

* ActionGirl: It doesn't take much for her to start wielding her shotgun.
* AscendedExtra: She was just a random bartender at first, then got her own little story arc.
* BadassBystander: When Raylan and Quarles are about to fight it out, it's Lindsey the bartender who picks up a gun and tells them to cut it out.
* TheBartender: Her job.
* BlatantLies: When Raylan catches up with Lindsey and Randall, she tells Raylan that his money is in their van. She and Randall already spent all the money on fighting cocks. Then again, the fighting cocks were in the van, so in that sense she was telling the truth.
* ChronicBackstabbingDisorder: She betrays Raylan, then Randall, then Raylan again, then Randall again.
* KarmaHoudini: She escapes any kind of punishment.

->'''Played By:''' James [=LeGros=]

A drug addict who supports his habits with crime.

* ButtMonkey: He might bring it on himself, but he still gets the short end of the stick plenty of times.
* CharacterDeath: Even in death, Wade is unlucky. Dewey Crowe shoots him, and Wade spends the entire night and part of the next day slowly dying. He finally expires off-screen and his body is found by the Marshals.
* FeedTheMole: Boyd is aware that Wade is an informant and feeds him flimsy information so as to deceive law enforement.
* FunctionalAddict: He is (or was) addicted to oxycontin, but it didn't impair his ability to commit half-assed crime.
* HypercompetentSidekick: To Dewey Crowe. Wade is better at keeping Audrey's afloat and works with Boyd behind Dewey's back. Of course, Dewey Crowe is the only person that Messer is capable of being a HypercompetentSidekick to, since Messer himself is a monumental screw-up.
* TheMole: He serves as an informant on Boyd's activities to law enforcement.
* YouHaveFailedMe: Daryl pressures Dewey into murdering Wade because Wade was skimming money off of Audrey's and collaborating with Boyd Crowder. Naturally, Dewey screws up the murder ''spectacularly''.

An associate of Yoon and a representative at the Mexican heroin deal with Boyd Crowder and Wynn Duffy. He has a working relationship with Mr. Picker, who introduces him to Wynn Duffy and the Crowders. Generally calm and reasonable, Alberto has a vicious side that emerges whenever he's sent to deal with Mr. Yoon's enemies.

* {{Badass}}: Ruiz is a very capable man, hence why he's so trusted by Yoon.
* TheCartel: Alberto works for the Mexican heroin cartel, particularly for Mr Yoon.
* CharacterDeath: He's killed during a shootout with Tim and Rachel.
* TheDragon: For Mr Yoon.
* FinalBoss: For Boyd in Season 5. After tangling with Lee Paxton and Johnny Crowder, Ruiz is the final physical threat of Boyd's Season 5 arc.
* KnifeNut: He menacingly shows off his knives while describing how to properly skin an animal.
* PragmaticVillainy: He operates on the same level as his boss, treating his illegal activities like the business it is. For example, when Boyd protests about the deal being ended, Ruiz gives him a chance by calling Yoon back.
* TheStoic: Rarely shows much emotion beyond placid irritation.
* ToThePain: Ruiz describes rather vividly to Boyd what's in store for him.
-->''"The first cut, you make right down the belly. Bleed the animal, remove the insides, careful not to puncture the bladder. Next, you remove the genitals. Now you are ready to the take the skin. Cut first at the ankle joints, snap the tendons, start to peel back the pelt. The trick is to remove it in one piece. It's easiest when the animal is still warm."''

Two henchmen of Hot-Rod Dunham's who first appear in Season 5. Siblings and killers-for-hire, they offer their services to whoever pays the most, working first for Hot-Rod and then Johnny Crowder.

* BaldOfEvil: Roscoe.
* BunnyEarsLawyer: Jay never stops talking, Roscoe barely speaks, and they frequently communicate in code. Throw in Jay's refusal to let a victim talk until a song stops playing, and Roscoe's apparent love of Shakespeare, and you have a very odd pair of gangsters.
* {{Cloudcuckoolander}}: Roscoe, who delivers a profanity-laced exposition on ''King Lear'' in the middle of a standoff in "Wrong Roads".
* CoDragons: To Hotrod and then Johnny.
* DeadpanSnarker: Jay can go toe-to-toe with Raylan in the snark department.
* DragonTheirFeet: They are absent during the final Boyd/Johnny confrontation, remaining in Memphis while the two Crowders fight it out in Mexico.
* EvenEvilHasLovedOnes: Jay completely loses it and nearly gets himself killed when Roscoe is shot.
* FauxAffablyEvil: They come off as pretty likeable, but are totally ruthless psychos under the surface.
* HiddenDepths: Roscoe's analogy about ''King Lear'' may have little relevance to the issue at hand, but it ''is'' a startlingly accurate summation of play's events, suggesting that the hulking thug may be [[GeniusBruiser something of an intellectual]].
* LaughablyEvil: They're pretty amusing, what with Jay's screwed up sense of humour, and Roscoe's stoic imperturbability.
* [[PsychoForHire Psychos For Hire]]: They blatantly admit to just wanting a job where they can murder on the clock. The only reason they didn't go into law enforcement or the military is the paperwork.
* TheQuietOne: Roscoe barely talks, absent his memorable speech about ''King Lear''.
* ScaryBlackMan: Played dead straight. They might be good for a laugh or two, but the fact that they're ruthless killers is never forgotten.
* SiblingsInCrime: They're brothers in crime.
* SiblingTeam: As mentioned with some frequency, they're brothers.
* SmarterThanYouLook: They look and cheerfully act the part of a pair of gang-bangers, but both are quite bright, displaying tactical aptitude, expert teamwork, and in Roscoe's case, an apparent love of Shakespeare.
* TheStoic: Roscoe.
* StopBeingStereotypical: Jay is very offended that, with so many white people in Hot-Rod's crew, a black guy screwed things up in the deal with Loretta and Derek.
-->'''Jay:''' And you know what bring me down? You got all these damn crackers in this crew, and it's the brother that had to go and screw shit up!
* TalkativeLoon: Jay never really shuts up.
* ThoseTwoBadGuys: They're never seen apart and fit the stereotype, with Jay doing all the talking, and Roscoe barely speaking.
* WickedCultured: Roscoe quotes ''Theater/KingLear'' and then proceeds to explain the analogy at length, much to [[TheQuietOne surprise of all]].

* NotSoHarmlessVillain: They might invoke some of that legendary Canadian niceness, but they're still ruthless mobsters.
* MobWar: With the Detroit Mob after Sammy takes over. They win.

But all is not well in the marriage or in Gary's business dealings, which threaten to ensnare more than would-be homebuyers.

* GoodAdulteryBadAdultery: Winona left Raylan for Gary years ago. Winona later rekindles romance with Raylan as she and Gary go through a divorce.

->'''Played By:''' Joseph Mazzello

A popular preacher who arrives in Harlan County selling salvation through his appropriately named Last Chance Salvation church (a tent). He appears to be completely genuine in his concern for the local residents, many of whom are current or former drug users who are the primary target market for Boyd Crowder's products.

* AsTheGoodBookSays: He has [[http://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Mark%2016:17-18&version=NIV Mark 16:17-18]] written on a banner in the front of his church-tent.
* BrotherSisterIncest: Averted, but Boyd crudely accuses Cassie of this when he sees her leaving Billy's room. It turns out, she just sings him to sleep.
* BrotherSisterTeam: With Cassie.
* CharacterDeath: Boyd goads him into a real test of faith, and Billy handles a snake with real venom. It bites him, and Billy dies moments later.
* CoolPet: Mabel, his poisonous snake. He handles Mabel in public as a demonstration of faith and has survived her bites.
* DrugsAreBad: Several of his converts are former addicts who have renounced drugs because of his influence. Boyd takes notice of him when his Oxycontin sales drop as a result.
* GoodShepherd: At first, Billy can initially appear as a probable SinisterMinister due to his enmity with Boyd, silver tongue and the snake motifs around him. But Billy does believe in what he's saying and has a genuine desire to help others and spread God's word. He's spot-on when he talks to Ellen May about Boyd's people 'shaming' her out of greed and fear.
* HonorBeforeReason: He repeatedly locks horns with Boyd, even though this puts him and his sister in danger. When Boyd accuses him of preaching to make money, he tells his congregation that Last Chance Salvation Church will no longer accept monetary donations (much to Cassie's chagrin). Finally, he picks up an un-milked rattlesnake to demonstrate his faith to Boyd and the congregation, only to receive a fatal bite.
* KillTheCutie: Outside of the Marshals, Billy was one of the few unambiguously good characters in the show, helping addicts quit drugs, encouraging Ellen May to exit prostitution, and offering spiritual nourishment to his flock. When Boyd pressures him into picking up the unmilked snake that kills him, it's a tragedy.
* LikeFatherLikeSon: Billy is a snake-handler like his late father. He dies by snake bite like his father too.
* MeaningfulName: St. Cyr sounds like 'sincere.' Seems to be played straight for both St. Cyr siblings, thus far.
* PreacherMan: For Last Chance Salvation.
* {{Pride}}: His downfall. Pride leads him to pick up the poisonous snake that Boyd brings to his church, which promptly bites him.
* RousingSpeech: Being a preacher, it's practically his job.
* TalkerAndDoer: Billy handles the preaching for the Last Chance Salvation Church, while his sister handles the behind-the-scenes, practical responsibilities of the ministry.

* ScyllaAndCharybdis: He winds up trapped between the U.S. Marhals, Markham's goons and Boyd Crowder.

* BadassBoast: He gives one to Carter Hayes, a dim-witted sociopathic underling.
-->''"I got you figured. You did most of your growing up in those juvie-detention gladiator schools. I guess Bobby didn't tell you I was the bench-press champion at Lewisburg. The next time you make me raise my voice, I'm gonna take this oxygen tank, and I'm gonna beat your ass to death with it."''
* BadassGrandpa: When Hayes tries to bully him around, Frank makes it abundantly clear that he isn't to be trifled with. Age has done little to stop him from being a tough son-of-a-bitch.
* FriendlyEnemy: To Art. When they speak, it comes across as two old friends lamenting their age rather than any kind of genuine rivalry. Neither wants to hurt the other, leading Art to chase him on his bad knees rather than put a bullet in him.

[[folder:Hayes]]
!!Carter Hayes
->'''Played By:''' Ronnie Gene Blevins

A friend of Bobby Green's since they were in "reform school" when they were kids. Bobby Green recruits Carter Hayes for Frank Reasoner's return to crime.
----
* {{Jerkass}}: Hayes is a vile excuse for a human being; crass, rude and disrespectful.
* KickTheDog: His first on-screen act is this, when he robs Winona and stomps on her face. He then needlessly shoots a random bank employee in the leg.
* SmugSnake: He's very pleased with himself for some reason, and believes completely that he'll make it as a criminal mastermind. His big scheme? Strapping road flares to his chest and pretending they're explosives. It earns him a well-deserved punch to the face.

A nurse and the manipulative girlfriend of Lance.
----
* BitchInSheepsClothing: When she first appears, Layla comes across as so charming, beautiful and witty that even Raylan is fooled. She later reveals her true colours as a remorseless murderer heavily involved in an organ-harvesting scheme.
* CharacterDeath: She has the dubious honor of being the first woman Raylan kills.
* DeadlyDoctor: Layla's a nurse as opposed to a doctor, but all the same, she's a dangerous medical professional.
* FauxAffablyEvil: She's so good at faking affability that she has everyone fooled, but once she drops the act, she's much more of a smug jerk.
* HospitalHottie: Her natural beauty helps with being TheVamp.
-->'''Raylan:''' Local girl. Cute as a pailful of kittens.
* ManipulativeBitch: She successfully manipulates Lance and even Raylan for a brief time.
* MoreDeadlyThanTheMale: She's 100 times more ruthless and deadly than her boyfriend/cohort Lance.

[[folder:The Truth Family]]
!!The Truth Family
->'''Played By:''' Beth Grant, Ted Welch, Jessa French, Ethan Jamieson & Daryl Crittenden

A family of brash, unkempt criminals headed by Mother Truth.
----
* AssholeVictim: The real Waldo Truth. Before he disappeared, he was an abusive husband and an adulterer. Mother Truth was happy to see him go.
* CorruptionOfAMinor: The Truths give 13 year-old Milo a handgun because they "agreed it was time."
* DeadPersonImpersonation: After the real Waldo goes off with Drew Thompson, never to return, Harold Shawn assumed Waldo's identity so that the Truths could keep collecting Waldo's disability checks.
* DomesticAbuse: The real Waldo physically abused Mother before his disappearance.
* EvenEvilHasLovedOnes: One of the Truth family's few redeeming features is their fierce protectiveness of each other. Mother Truth diffuses the standoff between the marshals and Jud, Nelly, and Trick because she fears that her nearby grandchildren will get caught in the crossfire if a gunfight erupts.
* TheFamilyThatSlaysTogether: Almost every member of the Truth household has an extensive criminal record. Even 13 year-old Milo spent time in juvenile detention for urinating on a cop.
* GoodAdulteryBadAdultery: Mother Truth shares a story of how the real Waldo tried to seduce her at a drive-in while she was still married to her first husband.
* HandsOffParenting: Mother Truth doesn't seem too perturbed by her children and grandchildren's casual gun use, drug use, or criminal activities.
* IronicName: The Truth family has been living a lie for over thirty years: the real Waldo Truth hasn't been seen in years, and Harold has been impersonating him.
* ShoutOut: WordOfGod says that the Truths were inspired by the eponymous family in ''The Wild and Wonderful Whites of West Virginia''.
* SouthernGothic: The entire family reeks of this atmosphere.
* TooDumbToLive / StupidCrooks / RefugeInAudacity: What else do you call people who are ready to enter a gunfight with children just a few feet away? Who relish the idea of a gunfight with ''three federal marshals''? Who use illegal drugs ''in the presence of three federal marshals''? Who repeatedly get caught and arrested over and over again?
-->'''Elder Truth Brother:''' Oh, I got the glaucoma.
** The RefugeInAudacity part seems to have been inherited from their patriarch Waldo, who met his wife by hitting on her when she was already married to someone else.

->'''Played By:''' Creator/JakeBusey

A crackpot safecracker hired by Wynn Duffy and Boyd Crowder to help figure out how to break inside of the vault located at The Portal.
-----
* BunnyEarsLawyer: The guy might be a CloudCuckoolander due to all the drugs he has taken but he is still a top notch safe cracker which is why Duffy hires him for important jobs.

* ShutUpHannibal: While delivering a self-pitying, pathetic excuse for his repulsive actions, Raylan is too disgusted to hear it.
-->'''Glenn:''' Thing is, I had 10 grand, and Jess said it wasn't enough for the risk he was taking. He had a solution, though. He'd heard there's people that'd pay-

[[folder:Hanselman]]
!!Karl Hanselman
->'''Played By:''' Robert Picardo

-->''"Next time you're in Cincinnati, come by the gallery, I'll show you my collection. I think you'll be quite surprised."''

A gallery owner in Cincinnati who buys Hitler paintings.

* AntagonisticOffspring: He ''hated'' his father, an ex-Nazi who still held deep-rooted Nazi views and considered his time during the Third Reich as the best time of his life.
* GoodAllAlong: Hanselman seems very unsettling, smug and creepy considering his hobby is buying Hitler paintings. As it turns out, he was buying those paintings just to burn them to spite his deceased father.
-->''"My father grew up in Germany, in Munich, before the war. He was very poor. He saw the wealthy of his city, and he wanted what they had. But there was no way someone like him could ever hope to rise to that. And then along came a very charismatic man who knew who was to blame, and my father followed him. Publicly, after the war, my father recanted everything the Reich stood for. But he never did in his heart. In private, after some wine, he would say that his years working for Hitler were the best of his life. His proudest achievement was when Hitler selected him to run a team that went through the country, reacquiring the Fuhrer's old paintings. I hated my father. So, this has been my project. I buy Hitler's shitty paintings, and I burn them."''

%%* EvilOldFolks
%%* NeverSuicide
* PoliticallyIncorrectVillain: It isn't explicitly stated, but the man ''does'' buy Hitler paintings and originally had no intention of selling them on. Add in the fact that his wife is disdainful of "Jew lawyers", and there's plenty to imply he's a Nazi sympathiser.

A spotter for Mr. Duke and would-be-killer of Raylan and Ava.
