The motives of his group are eliminating law and political officials to give the people more power. He is first seen when one of the girls in his group lures two gas company men to the hills and he kills them both. He is next seen when his group steals some explosives and cuts Digeorgio's throat. Afterwards, he is seen kidnapping the mayor. His final appearance is on his island when his remaining people go against Harry Callahan and Inspector Moore. He shoots Moore in the chest twice and takes the mayor to the guard tower. There, he fires his weapon and tries to find Callahan. Harry picks up a rocket launcher, calls out Maxwell's name, and fires. With one last scream, Maxwell gets hit with the rocket and is blown away. Not long afterwards, an SFPD helicopter flies in and broadcasts the message that Maxwell's demands have been met.
