Glen Milton

Glen Milton is the prison warden at Ryall State Prison in Silent Hill: Downpour. He is in charge of all correction officers, dealing with the press, upholding the reputation of the prison, and dealing with prisoners' prohibitions. He assigned a major investigation into the death of inmate Patrick Napier to Captain Bryan Handley, and ordered a full review of all prison isolation and segregation procedures. He also transferred Murphy Pendleton from Ryall to Wayside. Milton's role in the game focuses on the bureaucratic and institutional level, and his actions directly affect the protagonist Murphy Pendleton's encounters, revealing the corruption and injustice that exist in the prison system, and adding depth to the narrative and themes of Silent Hill: Downpour. Glen Milton is not a character directly involved in the supernatural events. His role is more as a figure of authority in the story's background, embodying the darkness and injustice of the real world and indirectly influencing the fate of the game's protagonist. As the warden, he symbolizes authority and oppression, which exacerbate the psychological horror themes that are consistent with the Silent Hill series. His presence also suggests that even in seemingly normal institutions, there can be disturbing corruption and injustice.
