He knew too much

The Cleaner.
Bill Chart is his name, we know who he is and what he did, but we could never nail him for a crime. 
Good as he was at his job, he cleaned up other people's mistakes (usually with a gun), Bill had one concern that made him watch his back, the better BIll got, the more he knew about his clients, and they were people who needed to stay in the shadows.

Oh, he had his dark side, he was once a cop but something went wrong on a raid, and Bill took the fall for it, to this day only he and one other person know the truth of that raid, and neither is saying a word; the people involved could make you disappear, and nobody would ask questions.
The problem with Bill Chart is he is a thinker, not a player, and he had one question too many to ask, that was who cleans up when the Cleaner needs to be taken out?

The raid wasn't the only reason Bill got kicked off of the force, he was old-school, and not worried about using his fists to get the truth from a "perp" that didn't go well with his boss. Bill helped get the results and kept the city free from thugs, but the men at the top had no stomach for "Old School" policing.
Bill could vanish in the crowd as he rarely shaved since his days on the force, and who cares about another drunk, unshaven and smelling of booze? It was a good thing he could disappear as it saved his life many times.
