** Contestable. He's got indifferent parents in backstory and an [[OddFriendship unlikely]] but genuine friendship with Shane. He [[spoiler: saved Abby from Wakefield seven years ago]] but never mentioned it because he doesn't want her to think she owes him, flew off the rails badly enough after Abby left that Sheriff Mills decided to personally keep a close eye on him, and eventually became good friends with the sheriff to the point of [[FirstNameBasis calling him "Charlie"]]. As characters on this show go, that's quite a bit of development; at worst, he'd be a SatelliteCharacter because most of his scenes involve Abby.
