Michael Emmett Doherty was born to Irish immigrants living in New York. The first five years of his life were filled with emotional and physical abuse from his alcoholic parents. In 1975, he was sent to live with his grandparents in war torn Belfast, Northern Ireland during the height of “The Troubles”. While growing up, he witnessed various atrocities and violence on a daily basis. Sectarianism of West Belfast gripped its evil hold and the scars of his childhood permeated every aspect of his life and ran deep. They would haunt him throughout his life.
At the age of nineteen, Mike returned to New York to follow in his father’s footsteps by joining the NYPD. While working as a patrolman in the gritty crime ridden south Bronx, he was involved in a violent shootout where his partner was killed and he was critically injured.
Suffering from Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder, Mike struggled to deal with the loss of his partner and his own injuries. He began to drink heavily in order to cope with the pain and violence of his past as well as the terrifying nightmares and haunting flashbacks. Over time he slipped further into depression that ultimately resulted in devastating consequences.
