Biography[]
Jack Reacher (2012)[]
Punk is one of four buddies of Jeb Oliver who accompany him to beat up Jack Reacher. After Reacher has taken out Jeb, the remaining buddies attack him. Reacher takes out two other guys. Punk and the remaining buddy are ready to attack again, but when they hear police sirens, they run away. They are nevertheless arrested and leave the jail together with Jeb.
When Reacher visits Jeb's home and takes out two oft Zec's thugs, Punk appears and points a gun at him. Reacher is able to overcome him and uses the gun to twist his fingers, which are still in the trigger guard. In great pain, Punk tells Reacher that the last time he saw Jeb was when they left the prison together. Jeb wanted to seek out somebody, but Punk doesn't know whom. Reacher further tortures Punk so that he gives him his car keys and says he may use the car as long as he wishes.
Punk's name is on a list given by Linsky to Charlie who intends to kill all the people on the list. However, it remains unknown whether he really killed Punk before he himself was killed by Reacher.
