Doc O’Connor is a limousine driver in Laramie who was a friend of Matthew Shepard’s. According to Doc, Matthew used to hire him for rides to gay bars in a town an hour away. Doc loves Laramie and believes that there are more gay people than there seem to be in the town. Doc hopes that Aaron McKinney and Russell Henderson will not receive the death penalty, believing that it would defeat everything Matthew stood for and would leave the community without hope for healing.
