As noted by several characters, DefCon was a notorious drug lord who had a massive organization in New York. He had at least one brother Vernon who he was very close too.
At some point, he became affiliated with the Thomas siblings and started dating Raquel, supposedly leading to the birth of their son Kanan, who later turned out to be Malcolm Howard’s son, a cop who was investigating Def Con. According to Raq, Def wanted to be sure she was loyal by keeping her out of the loop while she was pregnant with Kanan. In truth, DefCon was actually gay and was paying her to act as his cover to maintain his reputation. By the 1970s, DefCon was arrested and incarcerated.
