He shows up in the first episode just as Erin is murdered and on the one-year anniversary of Katie's abduction and is played by a very well-known actor famous for playing villains. You'd be forgiven for thinking he was being set up as the killer or responsible in some way but Richard never has any ties to the main events and is simply a normal and very likable love interest for Mare.
