Maitland is a criminal. That makes him a bad guy.

Maitland employed a toadie who, through his total incompetence, allowed Foley to wreck the buffet at the Harrow Club.

We don't know how much Mikey actually stole, but he had a stack bonds which we have no idea on the value. It didn't seem like too much, though it could have been. Should he have done it, of course not, did he deserve to die because of it, of course not. Should he have known that Mr. Drug Seller would kill him over it, yes. Does it make it right to kill him over it, no.

Maitland kills people. Does that make him a bad guy? What?
