On April 6, 1991, Sergeant Max Greevey was shot to death outside his home by Daniel Magadan, Jr., who wanted to silence his grand jury testimony on construction industry corruption. Marie witnessed the shooting from her home's window while on the phone to Mike Logan. (L&O: "Confession")
Sergeant Max Greevey (born 1947 - April 6 1991) was an investigative officer assigned to the New York City Police Department's 27th Precinct detective squad.
Greevey had served with the NYPD since 1968, placing his total time in service at 23 years. His squad commander at the 27th Precinct was his former partner and best friend Captain Donald Cragen. He mentions that he lost a previous partner during a traffic stop. (L&O: "A Death in the Family") Greevey's partner during his final year on the job was Mike Logan. Greevey and his wife Marie had three children, including a son named Matthew and a daughter named Eileen.
Though Greevey's final appearance was in "Confession," his death scene was performed by an uncredited double, since George Dzundza had already left the series prior to the filming of the episode. Dzundza's final appearance on the series as Max Greevey was in the final episode of the series' first season, "The Blue Wall."
