Richard Cain (born 1957) is a lawyer hired by "people of means" to defend drug dealer Sally Alvarado from drug possession/distribution charges. Cain and James "Sonny" Crockett butted heads previously, but Cain called him into his office to warn him of his defense strategy--to force Crockett to name his informant, Bob Rickert, in court or go to jail on contempt charges, which is exactly what happened when Crockett refused. Cain dropped his motion when Rickett went to him to admit his involvement in the case.

- Richard Scully Cain was born to John and Lydia (née Scully) Cain, who were Irish-American and Italian-American, respectively, in Chicago. Cain was raised in Chicago and Michigan after his parents divorced. He joined the U.S. Army at the age of 17 and was stationed in the United States Virgin Islands from 1947 to 1950. While there, he became fluent in Spanish. Before returning to Chicago in 1951, Cain worked as an investigator at the Burns Detective Agency in Dallas. Cain became involved with the Chicago Outfit by using his position as a security guard to arrange the hijacking of United Parcel Service trucks. Despite his grandfather having been a prominent sewer contractor who was killed by the Outfit in Little Italy, Chicago, in 1928, Cain would later become a made man[ and a close associate of Sam Giancana. It has been alleged that Giancana arranged for Cain to become an officer with the Chicago Police Department during the mid-1950s. While a policeman, Cain served as a bagman between corrupt police officials and the Outfit. He also served as an enforcer while working in vice districts and occasionally participated in staged police raids on the Outfit's illegal casinos and sports betting parlors.
