History
Howard Saint was a ruthless mobster. After his son Bobby was killed by Frank Castle, Howard ordered the whole man's family to be killed in revenge. Thinking Castle had died in the attack, Saint was pleased. When the Toro brothers, a pair of Cuban mobsters, complain about a failed trade in Saint's territory, and a huge amount of money was lost, Howard realized that Castle was still alive and on a personal vendetta against him. He hired two assassins, Harry Heck and The Russian, to kill him. Meanwhile, Castle, with the aid of the criminal Mickey Duka (who has his own reasons for hating the Saints), made Howard believe that his wife Livia was cheating on him with his best friend Quentin Glass (who is actually homosexual) with false evidence planted by Castle, found by Saint himself. Howard believed he has a confirmation of the two's affair when he finds Livia's earring on Quentin's pillow in his home (actually planted by Castle). After a confrontation, Howard killed Quentin, with the latter not knowing why. Later, he killed his wife Livia. He was then killed by Castle who reveals he planted the evidence and that he killed his wife and friend for nothing.[1]
