Cal Hampton

Bucket hat, police scanner, conspiracies

Cal Hampton is Jason Duval's friend, introduced in Trailer 2 as a bucket-hat conspiracy theorist who monitors police chatter from his couch and sees conspiracies everywhere. Confirmed

Role

Rockstar's one-line description of Cal is the whole character: a conspiracy theorist who listens to the police from his couch. That is useful to someone in Jason's line of work, and it fits a game whose main systems involve what the police know about you (Wanted level).

Where he is seen

In the screenshots Cal is indoors with his radios, in the same Keys circle as Jason Duval and Brian Heder.
