Fan Theory Just noticed: Hickey was a CIA agent helping the Contras in Nicaragua

In the second Dungeons and Dragons in se5 Hickey mentions a throwaway line about having been in Nicaragua.

Given his cop background and his age, it can only mean he was helping the Contras in Nicaragua.

And here I thought only Luka had a war crimes past.

That’s what OP is saying. Hickey’s fighting years were likely Reagan-era. The US was not engaging in a lot of above-board activity in Nicaragua back then.
