while drunk. Since then, Ray has been on disability fraud living off workers' compensation, claiming that he suffered a crippling muscle spasm that renders him unable to walk. He spends most of the series in a wheelchair, although he often gets out of it and walks around when he is in his trailer or in the company of people he can trust. However, in Season 2 he uses a cane to walk around without arousing suspicion. Ray is eventually exposed and imprisoned in Season 5 after Lahey finds a video of him getting out of his wheelchair. While in a wheelchair he constantly refers to himself as "the guy in the chair". From his truck-driving years he has acquired the habit of urinating in jugs, which he leaves around the trailer park. Like Lahey, Ray is an alcoholic, but is willing to go greater depths to obtain alcohol. For example, he agreed to star in one of J-Roc's porn films in exchange for liquor, although he passed out from drinking the bottle before the film was shot. At one point, Ray ripped the plumbing out of his own trailer to sell as scrap in order to get money for more alcohol. Ray claims to be a Calvinist, although his understanding of Calvinism (and of Christianity in general) is quite limited; the main appeal of Calvinism is the concept of predestination, which he misinterprets to mean that he need not account for his irresponsible actions. Ray also often refers to the Bible in an attempt to guilt others into helping him. He is addicted to gambling, and often loses his money playing video lottery terminals. Up until Season 5, Ray had his own trailer on a 35-year mortgage that he had finally paid off. However, it burned down after Ricky left the stove on. Ray lives in his old sleeper cabin until his eviction from Sunnyvale in Season 6, at which point he relocates with the sleeper cabin to a local dump yard. After Lahey was reinstated as a police officer at the end of Season 6, Ray was allowed to return to Sunnyvale and was given Lahey's former position of trailer park supervisor, although he was negligent of his duties. In season 7, in exchange for helping Lahey frame officers Green and Johnson for police brutality as revenge for trying to kill him, Ray has his DUI records erased and
