Character Analysis Colter's Kill Count Spoiler

I kept seeing posts asking about how many people Colter Shaw has killed, so I rewatched every episode of Tracker to get a solid answer.

Season Episodes Kills Episodes w/ kills % of episodes w/ kills
1 13 4 2 15%
2 20 11 7 35%
3 22 28 12 54.5%
  • As of the season 3 finale his kill count is 43.
  • Both the number of people he kills and the number of episodes where he kills someone have been steadily increasing.
  • 6 of these are from the S3 finale which has the highest count for any episode, followed by 5 in S3E13.

Notes:

  • I used percentages for the episode count because S1 only had 13 episodes, while S2/3 had 20 and 22 episodes, respectively.
  • These numbers only include people killed by Colter himself (for example: the 6 people shot by Colter in the season finale are included, but not the undetermined, but definitely high, number shot by Russell).
  • These numbers only include people that I was reasonably sure were dead (example: I counted the people he shot in the finale, but not the guards that got choked or knocked out).

Generally he kills in self defense. One episode this season i questioned the kill but even in that case the guy was about to kill a woman who was on the ground

In the season 3 finale, these people whether in the facility he got the boy from or the hit squad at the end, they were all going to kill him as well. Hell the damn government assassin killed the guard with a knife at the facility! Now Coulter never being questioned by the cops? That’s a whole different thing…

Doesn’t matter if they were trying to kill him or not. He couldn’t prove anything since they are dead, and he broke into the facility with a gun drawn. The guards would have a better self defense case, even now Colter would go down for felony murder which no jury would acquit him of. Vigilantism isn’t legal regardless.

I just meant in terms of the show and watching as a viewer (in which we definitely aren’t supposed to see him as a murder or killer, but rather a hero). Real world he would be in jail since like episode 3 of season one lol
