Backstory[]
Casey Braxton was born on 23rd January 1994 or 23rd January 1995 (depending on the source). He was the third son of Cheryl Braxton. He was the result of an extra-marital affair Cheryl was having with family friend Johnny Barrett. Not that she told her husband Danny Braxton. He believed Casey was his son. Casey had two older half-brothers - Darryl "Brax" Braxton and Heath Braxton who dabbled in crime.
2011-2014[]
Casey was kicked out of Reefton Lakes High School for disruptive behaviour. Although he tried to stay on the straight and narrow, he struggled with this because of his family. He switched to Summer Bay High School. He began a relationship with Ruby Buckton, though her mother Charlie (a police constable) didn't approve.
During 2011, the Braxton's feud with the Pirovac family escalated. Casey literally added fuel to the fire by setting fire to Jake Pirovic's headquarters. He learned from Ruby that the police knew he had committed the crime. On the advice of Brax, he handed himself into the police. His time in the detention centre didn't go well and he emerged as a darker character.
In 2013 Casey was badly injured when he and Maddy Osborne were involved in a car accident. He was left in a wheelchair which affected him deeply.
Casey died in an armed standoff in September 2014 when Jake Pirovic shot him while aiming for Brax.

Casey's gravestone says he was born 23rd January 1995 but other refs say he was born a year earlier which is 23rd January 1994.
The 2011 storyline where Casey is sent to a juvenile detention centre was created so that Lincoln Younes could reprise his role as Romeo in the final series of Tangled
