Burke Carter

Carter J. Burke was a junior executive for the Weyland-Yutani Corporation, serving as Special Projects Director for Weyland-Yutani (Space) Corp's Special Services Division.[3] He acted as a liaison to Ellen Ripley after her rescue from deep space in 2179, and later accompanied a squad of Colonial Marines on board the USS Sulaco to LV-426, the moon where Ripley had first encountered the Xenomorph species, to investigate the loss of contact with the colony of Hadley's Hope. While initially amicable towards the Marines and Ripley in particular, in reality Burke had ulterior motives and his loyalties lay solely with Weyland-Yutani. His continued scheming against the personnel from the Sulaco mission was eventually discovered, and he was nearly executed by the surviving Marines for his treachery. Ultimately, he was ambushed by one of the Xenomorphs at Hadley's Hope and either killed outright or taken alive to be cocooned and implanted with a Chestburster.
