Background
Charles "Chubby Charlie" Matteo, born in Alderney around 1948, was the underboss and right-hand man of Giovanni Ancelotti. Because of Ancelotti's age, Matteo often stood in for the family at meetings of The Commission. His street name comes from the large cut he takes on the loans he hands out. His record includes loansharking (1964), murder (1966), manslaughter (1982) and racketeering (2001).
Events of Grand Theft Auto IV
After being arrested on racketeering charges, Matteo skips bail and goes to ground in Alderney. While hiding he discovers that Phil Bell was behind the sabotage of a cocaine deal between the Ancelottis and the Russian Mafia. In Trespass, Bell sends Niko Bellic to silence him at the old Alderney Sprunk Factory in Tudor before the news reaches The Commission. Armed with a Micro SMG, Matteo shouts that his helicopter pilot will still deliver the message and that Jimmy Pegorino is finished. Niko succeeds, and Matteo dies in the factory explosion at age 60.
Trivia
- Phil Bell calls him a "top Ancelotti capo," even though an underboss outranks a capo.
- His LCPD database entry keeps listing him as "missing" for the rest of the game.
- Vehicles linked to him are the Contender, Super GT and Maverick.
