- "No one's ever gonna believe this, you know that?"
- ―Lt. Preston to Jesse and Jade.
Lieutenant Preston is a Lakeport detective, looking into Jesse and Jade as suspects of murder.
Bride of Chucky (1998)[]
Lt. Preston is interviewed about the deaths of Officer Bailey and Damien, as the evidence suggests both of their murders are connected. After Officer Norton's death, Jesse and Jade are considered prime suspects. And as Bailey's cigarette lighter was found near Norton's car, Preston believes the two also killed Bailey and considers them serial killers.
He tracks Jesse and Jade to the Forest Creek Cemetery in Hackensack to arrest them, but is disturbed to find out that the real murderer is actually Chucky. Jade takes his gun and uses it to kill Chucky. He contacts the police, telling them that Jesse and Jade are innocent of the murders and sends the couple on their way, clearing them both.
Death[]
He was possibly killed by Chucky and Tiffany's child, Glen, as the baby lunged at Preston's face after their birth. His fate remains unknown, as Psychs never stated that he saw a dead body when he found Glen at the Cemetery.
Trivia[]
- In the Devil's Due comic series, Preston survived the attack by Glen/Glenda, and is retiring from the police force. He and his wife are murdered by Chucky as part of his plan to kill those who stopped him in Bride of Chucky.
