Tommy Vercetti's father worked all his life in a printing shop, and years later Tommy had fond childhood memories of helping his father clean the rollers. He wanted to follow his father in the family business, but he lived a different life, instead becoming a criminal in the employ of the [[Forelli Family]]. | Tommy Vercetti's father worked all his life in a printing shop, and years later Tommy had fond childhood memories of helping his father clean the rollers.

Tommy was convicted in 1971 on 11 counts of homicide in the district of [[Harwood]], [[Liberty City in GTA III Era|Liberty City]], which earned him the nickname "The Harwood Butcher". With the help of the Forelli family’s connections, he was spared the death penalty and only served 15 years for manslaughter. That year (1986), Sonny sent Tommy to [[Vice City in GTA III Era|Vice City]], where he was meant to act as the Forelli's representative in a drug deal, and expand the Forelli empire into Miami; the deal, however, was ambushed by hitmen for drug lord [[Ricardo Diaz]]. Tommy worked for several people including [[Juan Cortez|Juan Garcia Cortez]] and Ricardo Diaz himself to find out who was behind the ambush, and to get the drugs back. Tommy and his partner in crime [[Lance Vance]] raided Diaz's mansion and killed him; Tommy then took over the mansion and started his own gang, the [[Vercetti Gang]]. | Tommy was convicted in 1971 (aged 22) on 11 counts of homicide in the district of [[Harwood]], [[Liberty City in GTA III Era|Liberty City]], which earned him the nickname "The Harwood Butcher".

Sonny Forelli, angry that he was not receiving a cut of the Vercetti Gang's profits, sent hitmen to raid Tommy's businesses; Tommy killed all of them, and so Forelli came to Vice City himself, to face Tommy one-on-one. At Vercetti mansion, Sonny revealed that the 1971 Harwood incident was an ambush he had organised, and that Lance Vance had betrayed Tommy. A gunfight between the Vercetti and Forelli gangs broke out across the Vercetti estate, and Tommy killed both Sonny and Lance. | Sonny Forelli, angry that he was not receiving a cut of the Vercetti Gang's profits, sent hitmen to raid Tommy's businesses; Tommy killed all of them, and so Forelli came to Vice City himself, to face Tommy one-on-one.
