Biography
Cory McConnor (born November 3rd, 1984 in Dublin, Ireland) is the older brother of Sara McConnor. He disappeared after Sara joined the police academy.

Early Life
Cory spent the early years of his life in his hometown of Dublin in Ireland with his mother Kate and his sister Sara. in 1994 her mother would meet an American soldier who she would fall in love with and later marry. Cory had a strong relationship with his sister, looking out for her and doing his best to keep her happy. In turn, she started to look up to him.

In 1996, after his mother married James, the McConnor family moved to San Paro, James's hometown. Cory spent most of his time trying to help Sara cope with the new environment, and to get over her dislike for their stepfather. In the early 2000's, Cory would start to be involved in the hacking scene. While he was initially able to keep this from his family, eventually Sara found out, scolding him for so callously stealing and breaking the law. This would eventually create a moral rift between the siblings, something Cory strongly came to regret as Sara grew more and more distant from him.

Adult Life
After Sara finished high school, she announced to her parents that she would be signing up for the San Paro Police Academy. This caused Cory to worry that his illicit activity may end up harming her career. When Sara got her letter of acceptance, Cory began to systematically find and remove all the information about him he could find and ran away from home, hoping to have effectively erased himself from existence.

Personality
Cory has a very fatalistic view on life. He has trouble dealing with change and often resigns himself to how things now are instead of trying to change them. At the same time, he is also extremely protective of his sister, keeping a distant eye on her over the years they were apart.
