Background

Russell is a custodian for the State Penitentiary in Colorado. He used to be a prison guard. Russell's son is Ivan Moser.

During the events of Destroyer (1988) played by Tobias Anderson

As they are making their way inside the prison, Susan Malone and David Harris see Russell and Russell comments how much the dummy resembles Sharon Fox and asks if it is anatomically correct. Warden Karsh arrives at the penitentiary and demands Russell let him in. Russell finds David stuck in the sewer and helps David out. He tells David, the hole he was in was called Moser's Hole and was made by Karsh to hold Ivan. Russell sees the body of Karsh float to the surface, but ignores it. Officer Callahan walks into the prison and asks Russell if he has seen Karsh. Russell takes Callahan through the prison to take him to Karsh. As Callahan is waiting for Russell, he is attacked by Ivan. Ivan takes a jackhammer and drills a hole through Callahan's body, killing him. While Sharon is wandering through the prison, she runs into Russell and he starts to grab her. She knocks him over a balcony and is then choked to death by Ivan with her Miss Dairyland sash. Later, Susan runs away and finds the dead bodies of the Film Crew in Russell's office. Russell attacks her with a blowtorch and they fall into Moser's Hole and Susan kills Russell with a rock to the head.
