Psychological Analysis:
Violence, or the very threat of violence, gets
results. Being the bigger one, the one with better weapons always helps to
settle an argument, as Muller has seen. It worked for his father and it worked
for Karl when he was a child ruling the playground. Compassion is merely the
weapon of the weak - those who have no stomach for a fair fight - a weapon aimed
at bringing their opponent down to their level. Muller has never had a problem
with using force, indeed it is his normal way of interacting with others. This
outlook on things has meant that Muller found a natural niche for himself first
in the army and now in the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms. The way
Muller sees it, there is nothing quite like a short sharp shock to obtain
compliance.
Muller's last case was the Atlanta Skinner murders (Nathan
Mitchell, BATF Director of SE Region was the SAIC). He and Agent Davis were
brought in to investigate a cache of stolen weapons found during the course of
the investigation. Muller's relationship with Davis is difficult since Davis
does not properly acknowledge Muller's authority. Either could have ended each
other's careers given what they know about what happened during the case but
neither seems willing to bring a third party into their ongoing struggle. As it
is, the disciplinary committee is likely to bring forward a finding of no fault.
The two BATF agents managed to get a result in the Skinner case, after all.
Agent Muller's personality profile is Introverted Sensing Thinking Judging
and his IQ is 130. He is single.
